Subject(s): Summary: Focuses on the growth of subnational involvement in foreign affairs. This represents an important and new dimension both to regionalism and to international relations. There is increasing evidence of the breakdown of the distinction between domestic and international affairs and between national and regional issues. International regimes, such as the European Union, APEC and NAFTA, have repercussions upon the autonomy of subnational government; growing subnational foreign action and contemporary conditions foster the formulation and implementation of foreign policy in federal and quasifederal states. Examples are drawn from Australia, Canada and the US; and from Basque nationalism.
