The Changing of Nations


We mentioned in class that the world is being shaped into:
  • National - within your country
  • International - between more than one country
  • Micronational - (sometimes considered intranational) - a group within a country trying to be a nation
  • Transnational - beyond countries, entirely global
Globalization (through economic and technological forces) make micronationalism and transnationalism more accessible to people within a nation.

Discussion Question:

How does this new type of grouping change the way a country fights a war?
