- catalog abstract ""In the post-Cold-War era, the function of the state as a symbol of identity has become increasingly important, while its conventional role is being challenged by the processes of globaliation which transcend such national boundaries. The tension between the territorial basis of the state and the global fluidity of economic forces is one of the central concerns of international political economy and related fields." "In this book, Barbara Emadi-Coffin seeks to explain this contradiction through a radical new theory. There are now more than 37,000 multinational corporations in the world, many of which are increasibgly seen as being among the new centres of global political and economic power. Emadi-Coffin analyzes the complex interactions between national governments, multinational corporations and international organizations in the formal and informal processes of global governance." "Using as examples the establishment of free trade zones in the Republic of Korea, the UK and the People's Republic of China, Emadi-Coffin demonstrates these interactions. In so doing, she confronts prevailing notions surrounding international organization theory." "This is a challenging new perspective which should make fascinating reading for scholars of international organization, international political economy and international relations."--Jacket.".
