Presenting the emergence and evolution of the G7/8 system, against the background of the global political economy, Ramos emphasizes the processes of transnationalisation of the state and their ’passive revolution’ in a historical and structural context since the 1970s. Analysed from a critical perspective, this book illustrates how hierarchy has been approached in international studies with emphasis on the following approaches: global governance; world-system; new imperialism; empire and governmentality. The second theme central to this study is an analysis of the globalization process and literature. Reaching back to the beginning of the G7/8 system and tracing its evolution through to the most recent developments - including a discussion about the G20 and the emerging countries in the BRICS, this book speaks directly to the large community of scholars of global governance and international relations, with its use of already well-established concepts such as globalization and empire.
