Envisioning the World – Mapping and Making the Global


Add your own review!

Overview

The ?global? is permanently made and remade by how it is envisioned in political projects, in language, and in literature. Through a range of case studies, this book shows how practices of referring to the world actually constitute the global in its many facets. It aims to provide a sense in readers of how the global is not something ?out there?, but that it is embedded in a wide range of the seemingly ?everyday?. The contributions appeal to a readership from a background in Sociology, History, Political Science, Literary Studies, and Social Work.
