Globalization has challenged relationships of rule in local,
regional, national, and international settings. This unsettling of
legitimacy raises questions. Under what conditions do individuals
and communities accept globalized decision making as legitimate?
And what political practices do individuals and collectivities
under globalization use to exercise autonomy? To answer these
questions, the contributors explore the disruptions and
reconfigurations of political authority that accompany
globalization. Arguing that we live in an era in which political
legitimacy at multiple scales of authority is under strain, they
show that globalization has also created demands for regulation,
security, and the protection of rights and expressions of
individual and collective autonomy.
