Terrorism and neo-medievalism - 2003

Notes that since the terrorist attacks of Sept 11 there has been considerable discussion about changes in current international relations theory - loosely described as neo-medievalism. The concept takes account of the increasing number of challenges to existing nation based IR theories including non-state violence, state disintegration, spread of modern technology, and the rise of sub and supra state identities, all of which question states' authority and legitimacy.
