This essay, written by David Held and translated to Persian by Tavaana, focuses on the changing nature of political community in the context of globalization. Held, a British political theorist, examines: the changing forms of political association and the rise of the modern nation state as the backdrop for modern conceptions of democracy; the key assumptions of liberal democracy and its conception of political community; changing forms of globalization and their implications in relation to the future of democratic political community; and a new conception of transnational democracy.
