MICRONATIONALISM AS A PHENOMENON OF THE PRESENT

Journal Title: FOLIA GEOGRAPHICA - Year 2014, Vol 56, Issue 1

Abstract

The establishment of territorial and virtual micronations, termed as “micronationalism,” relates to the last quarter century of their development. Micronationalism is a collection of thoughts supporting a varied collection of micronational activities, which are displayed by a tendency to disengage from the wider economic and political system of a particular state. In some cases it is only a kind of joke. Thereby, established micronations are trying to find ways for their own development through recognition of certain values. The paper focuses on the explanation of this phenomenon in the context of globalisation processes.
