This paper investigates the degree of global politics influenced by regional institutions more than national alliances and entities. This paper will argue that to a large extent the world is transitioning from a nation based world to a regional world using three…

talks about how the conflict of the Balkans will never really be resolved; the only thing that is “keeping the peace” is the threshold of the European powers (Ullman, 1996, pg. 3). He makes the claim that the Balkans are an unresolved dangerous territory that have only survived the amount of time they have without any conflicts due to the other European powers, having a high threshold and basically acting as a parental…
