East-West Studies

This first issue of a new series of East-West studies presents the proceedings of the international conference held at the University of Tallinn on 28 and 29 October 2021. The conference was titled Still a Cold Monster? Rise and Decline of Modern State, and it was sponsored by SOGOLAS, the School of Society, Governance and Law of the University of Tallinn. The topic discussed was the role of the state in an increasingly privatised, globalised and digitalised society. In the last thirty years, national societies have been undergone profound transformations.
