| Summary |
Global Modernities is a sustained commentary on the international character of the most microcosmic practices. It demonstrates how the global increasingly informs the regional, so deconstructing ideas like the 'nation-state' and 'national sovereignty'. The spatialization of social theory, hybridization and bio-politics are among the critical issues discussed |
