This book is an invitation to question conventional and often
misleading visions of globalization. No problem is global by
nature: issues are transformed by the action of claims-makers to
become 'problems' debated in supra-national forums, triggering
policy choices and policy transformations. Contributions highlight
how health issues, environmental issues and/or political issues are
framed as global by a set of stakeholders (scientific experts,
bureaucrats, political parties or actors, social movements, social
networks, firms). As the volume maps the social logic behind the
globalization of problems, it also presents an opportunity for the
very cross-disciplinary collaboration it calls for: researchers
mobilizing the "agenda-setting" paradigm of issue globalization and
those working within the "social constructionist" model are both
represented here, providing a unique opportunity to examine the
dynamics of globalization from the perspectives of (political,
media, economic) sociology, international relations, social
movement studies, and beyond.
