Аннотация:

The ability to deploy interdisciplinary theoretical perspectives that speak to interconnected global dimensions is critical if one&rsquo;s work is to be relevant and applicable to the emerging global-scale issues of our time.&#160;<I>The Global Turn</I> is a guide for students and scholars across all areas of the social sciences and humanities who wish to embark on global-studies research projects. The authors demonstrate how the global can be studied from a local perspective and vice versa. They show how global processes manifest at multiple levels&mdash;transnational, regional, national, and local&mdash;all of which are interconnected and mutually constitutive.&#160;This book takes readers through the steps of thinking like a global scholar in theoretical, methodological, and practical terms, and it explains the implications of global perspectives for research design.
