By reading this summary, you will discover the thesis of Benjamin Barber, an American professor of political science. He seeks to demonstrate that a new form of international governance is possible, based on the example of connected cities that form networks and represented by the mayors who lead them. This "glocal" mode of governance would make it possible to overcome the logic of sovereign competition between nation-states.

You will also discover that : Cities are the original level of human organization; Cities can be autonomous and demonstrate their strengths; There are concrete, local solutions to international problems; Cities are bound to evolve greatly as globalization and technological advances occur;

*In this book, it is illustrated that "freedom is municipal", as Tocqueville wrote in his portrait of American democracy. It is in cities that we are born, grow up, learn and survive. Most cities are much older than the states in which they exist today. They have many assets, such as promoting creativity, consensus and exchange. On the other hand, it would seem that some of their shortcomings, such as lack of sovereignty and independence, have become the keys to a possible new mode of governance.
