Description
From Simon & Schuster, The End of the Nation State explores how capital, corporations, consumers, and communication are reshaping global markets. Arguing that nation states are forfeiting their role in the global economy, the author contends that other forces have usurped economic power--capital, corporations, customers, communications, and currencies--and that natural economic zones or region states are emerging.
