TITLE

From the perspective of world-systems analysis, the inter-state structure of the modern world-
system (conventionally the principal subject matter for students of international relations) is
merely one institutional structure or plane of analysis among a number that altogether make up
the integrated framework of the modern world-system. This world system, like all world systems,
is an historical system governed by a singular logic and set of rules within and through which
persons and groups struggle with each other in pursuit of their interests and in accord with their
values. Pertinent analysis of geopolitics, in this perspective, can only be done within the context
of the functioning of the modern world system as a whole and in the light of its particular
historical trajectory.

The modern world-system is not the only world-system that has existed. There were many
others. It is, however, the first one that was organized and able to consolidate itself as a
capitalist world-economy. Although initially formed primarily in (part of) Europe, its inner logic
propelled it to seek the expansion of its outer boundaries. Over some four centuries, it proved
durable and strong enough to be capable repeatedly of incorporating new areas and peoples
within its division of labor until, by the late nineteenth century, its organization or integrated labor
processes effectively covered the entire globe, the first world-system in history to achieve this.
