Transnationality
Transnationalityis the principle of acting at ageographicalscale larger than that of states, so as to take into account the interests of asupranational entity.
Transnational policies or programmes are not simply aggregations of national policies or programmes, but seek to submerge these within a greater whole. According toAihwa Ong,the term differs from that oftransnationalism,as transnationalism refers "to the cultural specificities of global processes, tracing the multiplicity of the uses and conceptions of 'culture'" whereas transnationality is "the condition of cultural interconnectedness and mobility across space".[1]
Transnationality is practised by organisations such as theUnited Nationsand theEuropean Union.The EU's principle ofsubsidiarityholds that actions should be carried out at the lowest feasible governmental level, and therefore much scope is left to individual Member States. The EU institutions thus concern themselves principally with transnational policies and actions.
