    The Global Interstate System 1

    The global interstate system refers to the interaction between states and the global market economy. It has led some states to form regional partnerships for economic and political integration, such as the European Union with its single market and currency. International law and declarations of human rights have also developed through organizations like the United Nations, but these still rely on states and have limitations. Transnational activism has deep historical roots and uses communication networks to draw attention to issues and mobilize supporters across borders, putting pressure on states. Overall the interstate system faces challenges in balancing state sovereignty with globalization and human rights.

    THE GLOBAL INTERSTATE SYSTEM

    Introduction:

    This will discuss what it will take for states to uphold a more comprehensive set of rights:
    Civil and Political as well as Social and Economic Rights which are essential for citizens to
    flourish in the current Political Climate and work more assiduously to close the “ Citizenship
    Gap” in order to create more equitable and sustainable conditions for the next generation.

    What is global interstate system?

    The interstate system itself is the fundamental basis of the competitive commodity economy
    at the system level. Thus the interaction of world market and state system is fundamental to an
    understanding of capitalist development and its potential transformation into a more collectively
    rational system.

    Economic and Political Integration: The case of the European Union

    Alongside economic interdependence, states formed regional partnerships. Europe as


    continent’s political elite made the leap into market integration after WWII from European Coal
    and Steel Community to European Union. It has 28 members today with single currency and
    monetary system, supranational European Parliament, and common citizenship.

    The rise of International Law and Universal Principles

    The failure of the League of Nations strengthened the collected will of world leaders to start
    another international organization to facilitate global dialogue and promote human rights and
    fundamental freedom. The United Nations was formed in 1945 though it has huge limitations: it
    never transcended the states system and instead operates mainly as a forum for states to air
    their differences and try to resolve them. This is especially apparent within the Security Council
    and its outdated composition that awards veto power to each of the five countries that won the
    Second World War, as well as the General Assembly’s relative lack of power and its state based
    configuration.

    The UN has also been unable to prevent many atrocities and genocides around the world
    during its history. Concerns about the limitations led to formation of ad hoc tribunal and the
    permanent establishment of ICC. As the number of states has risen steadily, national leaders
    have turned to the UN and European rights declarations for inspiration when drafting
    constitutions and have often signed human rights conventions quickly as a way of building up
    global respectability for their new political legal systems.
    States as Targets: The Rise of Transnational Activism

    Transnational activism has deep roots that go back to 19th century campaigns against slavery,
    foot- binding practice in China, and for women’s voting rights. It is multifaceted as
    internationalism within which it has emerged. That although globalization and global neo-
    liberalism are frames around which many activists mobilize, the protest and organizations are
    not the product of a global imaginary but of domestically rooted activists.

    Communication Networks

    Globalization accompanied new forms of digital media that bring to light the possibility for new
    kinds of communities to coalesce via networks and create new arenas for political interaction,
    identity, and belonging. States are making a pragmatic transformation by adapting to fit in
    among other socially decisive global networks in arenas such as finance, education, science,
    technology, arts, cultures, sports and others. The silver lining is that the new media opens up
    potential for citizens to gain leverage and in the last resort, it is only the power of global society
    acting on the public mind via the media and communication networks that may eventually
    overcome the historical inertia of nation-states.
