Problem
Many people agree that our world is rapidly "globalizing." This globalization can be economic, can involve social norms customs and institutions; or it can involve organized force e.g., international organized crime, terrorist groups, and imperial powers. If the globalization of organized force gets carried very far what implications, if any, might this have for the utility of the Weberian definition of the state? Would a radically politically globalized world be one in which new types of states were observed? Or would it be a world of weak states?
