| Research Abstract |
Through the research of the international relations between the USA and Cuba (1962-1968), we have got a new insight on the fundamental structure of today's globalization. So-called Westphalia system, where the sovereign territorial state is supposed to be an autonomous integrated actor, was and is violated usually by the institutionalization of transnational political power. It is shown by the conjuncture of the global Cold War and the local Cold War, and "the abnormal situation" was and is reserved as a routine manner as to keep the international order. Globalization has made this context clearer and more visible.
