It seeks to determine who are the just owners of a nation’s natural resources and will do so by critically analysing both the arguments of those who support the idea of the nation-states as the legitimate owner of natural resources contained within its territory, the statists, and those who have challenged the idea of nation-states entitlement to control natural resources contained within its territory by pointing out that the availability of natural resources in any given nation-state is a matter of good luck, that therefore there are issues of distributive justice to consider, referred to here as the cosmopolitans.

The debate has been more about defining globalisation and the role of the state in a globalising world, the globalists arguing that Globalisation might have replaced International Relations in signifying dramatic changes in international relations(Kofman and Youngs, 2003) and that transnational institutions of global governance are emerging while the sceptics like ,Justin Rosenberg, disapprove and argue instead that the age of globalization is unexpectedly over” (Ibid)and that there is still much to be gained from focusing on state as a key actor if not the only actor.
This paper analyses critically this debate about globalisation in International Relations. It seeks to expose the problem of definition and determine whether the states are still the major actors or whether the states are being replaced by transnational institutions of global governance as major actors. In order to be able to do so, this paper will first seek to dig in the debate about globalisation in order to explore what is at stake in the debate and prove how the state is still a major actor even in the era of interconnected world.
