Grenzüberschreitende institutionalisierte Zusammenarbeit von der Antike bis zur Gegenwart

This volume contributes to the broadening of perspectives on international history, which have mainly focused on state forms of international cooperation in the 19th and 20th centuries so far. The volume questions ideas and theoretical models that are guided by methodological nationalism. Instead, it integrates studies under the concept of cross-border cooperation (grenzüberschreitende Zusammenarbeit) that deal with other epochs as well as non-state forms of cooperation. The individual essays take the governance approach into account, which is suitable because of its openness towards problems regarding interdependency, thus offering a broader perspective for discussion. This volume addresses historians, political scientists and social scientists who conduct research into cross-border cooperation.
