Geographies of Globalization explores the geographies of proximity and distance that shape globalization, and considers the politics of responsibility that it brings.
It examines globalization in terms of:Economy: patterns of trade, work and financePolitics: political institutions and the role of political campaignsTechnology: how technologies are networking the worldMigration: the dynamics of mobility.
