Features: Our world is currently undergoing a profound transformation period. While it remains uncertain to predict the long-term trajectory beyond the immediate horizon, it is certain that in the 21st century, the era of state monopoly governance will be a thing of the past, and governance will develop in multiple directions. Some may lead to a sunlit glade in the forest, while others may get lost in the thick fog. This book is the final outcome of the "Research on Economic Globalization and the Issue of State Sovereignty" project under the 15th Five-Year Plan for National Social Science Research. It analyzes and discusses issues such as globalization and state sovereignty, national identity, national functions, state power, civil society, and international organizations, and includes several new theories on globalization and state sovereignty by contemporary scholars.
