How can we study globalization in a way that transcends the
material/ideational rift? How has globalization resonated and/or
dominated in different national contexts? What role has been played
by national political economies and domestic institutions in this
process? "Producing Globalisation" attempts to scrutinize the
nature of the interplay between globalization and national
institutional settings. Rather than taking globalization as a
given, this book explores how concrete political actors produced
the phenomenon of globalization. Such an approach aims to bring
human agency and its importance to the forefront of theory and
practice in world politics and economics. The analysis is based on
two case-studies, Greece and Ireland. By examining and comparing
the discourses, policies and strategies of key, national
institutional actors in these two countries, "Producing
Globalisation" offers new insights into the emergence of
globalization as a hegemonic discourse, as well as into the theory
of hegemonic discourse itself. Thus the author invites us to think
differently both about the nature of globalization and the nature
of the hegemonic within international political economy.
