So...
What keeps relationships together or conversely, what breaks them apart?
What do you think?
![Page 3: Supranationalism](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061218/548268d7b4af9f7d0d8b4763/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)

Thanks, but how does this apply to Political
Geography?
![Page 6: Supranationalism](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061218/548268d7b4af9f7d0d8b4763/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
The forces of Political Relationships
There are two forces that Political geographers use to describe what keeps countries together and what breaks them apart...
Centripetal: proceeding or acting in a direction toward a center or axis (Binding)
Centrifugal: proceeding or acting in a direction away from a center or axis (Breaking away)
![Page 7: Supranationalism](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061218/548268d7b4af9f7d0d8b4763/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Centripetal forces
Forces that promote unity and national stability... “keep states together”
What are they?
See if you can make Sherwin’s top 5 list...
It’s Partner up time...
![Page 8: Supranationalism](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061218/548268d7b4af9f7d0d8b4763/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
1) promoting Nationalism
Same Language and Same Religion (unified)
(Holidays, Heroes, Olympics, Monuments, Flags, Songs)
“I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America.”
Do intermarriages/relationships face challenges?
![Page 9: Supranationalism](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061218/548268d7b4af9f7d0d8b4763/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
2) Unifying institutions
Schools: teach values
Television/media: esp if “state” controlled...less if there is freedom of the press (4th branch of govt)
ReligionDo you go to temple or church?Do you read or watch sports?
![Page 10: Supranationalism](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061218/548268d7b4af9f7d0d8b4763/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
3) Common Enemy/Threat
Sept. 11th; Pearl Harbor
Government: declaring war (Vietnam or Iraq)... creating us vs them tension (Cold War)...
Angry Mother-in-law
Wag the Dog
![Page 11: Supranationalism](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061218/548268d7b4af9f7d0d8b4763/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Just interesting...
Wag the Dog is a 1997 film about a Washington spin doctor who distracts the people from a U.S. presidential scandal by hiring a Hollywood producer, played by Dustin Hoffman, to construct a fake war with Albania.
The scheme enlists the musician Willie Nelson (who creates a theme song for the 'war') in this film

4) Transportation and communication
Where roads are or aren’t (Can you get to me now?)
Only 8 RRs cross the boundary between the US and Canada-promotes national growth
Do relationships work if you don’t have time for
each other?
![Page 13: Supranationalism](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061218/548268d7b4af9f7d0d8b4763/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
5) Geo friendly Land
No Islands
No Mts.
Nothing that isolates part from another part
Hawaii and Alaska in the US (DeBlij)
Again, do long distance relationships work?
![Page 14: Supranationalism](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061218/548268d7b4af9f7d0d8b4763/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Centrifugal forcesThe challenges to state authority
![Page 15: Supranationalism](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061218/548268d7b4af9f7d0d8b4763/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Centrifugal forces
Opposite of Centripetal
Bi/Multinational promotion
Bi/Multinational institutions
Poor trans/communication
Poor physical geo (separation)
![Page 16: Supranationalism](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061218/548268d7b4af9f7d0d8b4763/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Centrifugal forces can cause states to break-up...
It can happen right away or over time
![Page 17: Supranationalism](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061218/548268d7b4af9f7d0d8b4763/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
devolution (Trial separation?)
Types of devolution...Ethnocultural, Economic,
Spatial
Devolution: The transfer of some powers, and the delegation of some functions,
from a central sovereign government to local government.
![Page 18: Supranationalism](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061218/548268d7b4af9f7d0d8b4763/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Definitions of devolutionary forces
Ethnocultural: sub-group (nation) that has identity (lang./relgion) and wants to have some control
sometimes called Subnationalism or Regionalism
Economic: a different region might have different economic goals; rich regions have more say
Spatial: Mts., islands, fragments might get more control because of distance

The Po Valley is in Pandania
Shouldn’t it be the Rich Valley?
