state is politically independent from other states rather than being a colony or an area controlled by another power. The right of a core national group inside the state (which may include all or merely some of its residents) to self-determination supports a nation-authority states over a territory and the people who live there. Members of the core national group see the state as belonging to them and consider the approximate territory of the state to be their homeland.

2. How can you describe the rise of the nation-state based on your sources of data?

  • The Thirty Years' War, fought throughout central Europe from 1618–1648 between Protestants and Catholics, laid the legal foundation for the nation-state. The war involved many nations of Europe, including many small German states, the Austrian Empire, Sweden, France, and Spain. Despite a brutal war, the Catholics were unable to overturn Protestantism. The treaty that ended the war, called the Peace of Westphalia, decreed that the sovereign ruler of a state had power over all elements of both the nation and the state, including religion. Thus, the modern idea of a sovereign state was born.
  • 3. What are the two current trends that tells about the future of the nation-state? Describe each trend.
  • The first major trend is globalization. Over the last few decades, national boundaries have broken down in a variety of ways, including economically. In today’s truly global economy, money and goods travel across borders in huge quantities and at great speed. Many corporations build parts in a variety of countries, then assemble them in yet another country.
  • The second trend that marks the recession of nation-states concerns the increase in political power being given to local governments, sometimes to the point of autonomy. This trend is sometimes called Devolution because states are said to devolve power back to local governments. In the United Kingdom, for example, Scotland has been granted a great deal of autonomy, as has Catalonia in Spain. Should this trend continue, local governments would replace national or central governments.
