This was the alternative proposition that the participants were asked to consider at the two-day workshop out of which this special issue was put together. The workshop was held at the University of Warwick on 18–19 September 2008. We gratefully acknowledge financial assistance from the host institution, the Economic and Social Research Council (project number RES-000-22-2198), GARNET – the EU Network of Excellence on Global Governance, Regionalisation and Regulation, and the Political Studies Association of the UK.
