The >>global<< is permanently made and remade by how it is envisioned in political projects, in language, and in literature. Through a range of case studies, this book shows how practices of referring to the world actually constitute the global in its many facets. It aims to provide a sense in readers of how the global is not something >>out there<<, but that it is embedded in a wide range of the seemingly >>everyday<<. The contributions appeal to a readership from a background in Sociology, History, Political Science, Literary Studies, and Social Work.
