What difference do nonstate actors in international relations (such as Greenpeace, Amnesty International, IBM, or organizations of scientists) make in world politics? How do cross-national links interact with the world of states? Who controls whom?

Risse also claims that we can see the gradual emergence of transnational European communities of communication.
Exploring the outlines of this European identity and of the communicative...
