Abstract

VALDES-UGALDE, José Luis. Globalization vs. Sovereignty: Governance, War, or Progress, and World Order. Norteamérica [online]. 2015, vol.10, n.2, pp.7-46. ISSN 2448-7228.

This is a reflection from the point of view of political science and international relations about the impact of globalization on international issues. The author discusses the point to which globalization is linked to the integrationist, political transitions that have dominated international relations since the end of the Cold War, all of which have been watersheds in the international system. The article analyzes whether a relationship exists between globalization and the new connections between economy and politics, capitalism and democracy, security and migration, security and progress, culture and society, etc., and placing value on the new identities that these connections have in the context of globalization. The author examines how globalization affects the foundational aspects of the world order in the twentieth century, such as sovereignty, borders, war, and migration, as well as the process of the decline of the United States versus the preeminence of other global actors.

Keywords : Globalization; sovereignty; governance; war; world order; border; multiculturalism; state; hegemony; United States.
