Local Politics, Global Impacts
«’Finally a contribution to global governance that takes the study of power relations all the way down to the local level! Understanding the recursive impact of global and local dynamics is crucial for development practice and a feature of all of the most pressing issues in current times.’ Cornelia Woll, Sciences Po Paris, France ’The two-way interaction between global politics and local politics is an essential but under-explored question in several academic disciplines. This volume breaks new ground by combining sophisticated theoretical perspectives on the scale problem in global governance with a series of empirically rich and thought-provoking case studies. The collection should become an important point of reference for the next generation of studies on political processes spanning spatial scales.’ Mathias Koenig-Archibugi, London School of Economics and Political Science, UK»
Serving as a touchstone for a much-needed research program on social scales, this volume challenges disciplinary boundaries and brings into focus a paradoxical state of affairs in contemporary thought: the domain of local-global interactions has not yet been identified as an object of analysis in its own right, despite engaging a large, multi-disciplinary research community with strong potential for cross-fertilization.
