Liliput oder Leviathan? Der Staat in der globalisierten Wirtschaft

Perspektiven der Wirtschaftspolitik, 2002, vol. 3, issue 4, 363-375

Abstract: Globalization is often seen to result in a smaller (Lilliput) or larger (Leviathan) state. But future public activity will be more flexible. People have multiple identities. They can be citizens of sub– and supra–national jurisdictions, semi– and non–governmental organizations and private units, even profit–oriented firms. Such attachment may be temporary, multiple or partial. To actively choose strengthens loyalty and identification, which raises the willingness to pay for publicly supplied services (in the sense of quasi–voluntary taxation). On the supply side, Functional, Overlapping and Competing Jurisdictions (FOCJ) will develop. Such flexibility of future European integration will make it successful.
