THE GLOBAL INTERSTATE SYSTEM

 Global Interstate System

Competing
and Human Interaction
Allying States
 Weber (1997) describes the state as a compulsory political
organization with a centralized government that
maintains the legitimate use of force within a certain territory.

On the other hand, the concept nation emphasizes the organic ties
that hold groups of people together and inspire a sense of loyalty
and belonging i.e, ethnicity, language, religion,
and others (Schattle,2014).

Combining these two, a nation state can then be defined as a

political community that emanates from civic society
to legitimately execute peace. Thus, the civic society
is the basis of the peoples on eness.
