Preferred term

competition state  

Definition

  • Globalization is not just about economics—more open trade, financial globalization, or the internationalization of production. States and political actors are among the greatest promoters of globalization, leading to a transformation of the state itself—from the postwar national industrial welfare state (IWS) to a competition state.
