Journal Article
Sweeping Proclamations and Local Nitty-Grity: Knowledge and Social Problems
2006
Overview
The paper argues that sweeping proclamations about the effects of globalization relate to a world which is antithetic to that of real people. While, for example, politicians strive to meet what they 'know' to be the demands of socio-economic globalization; people contending with the problems such policies raise, deploy a repertoire of local knowledge & concomitant practices. Their knowledge combines traditional lore & lessons learned over a lifetime from dealings in ordinary local contexts. With the help of theorizations of globalization & of everyday life, it is possible to show how local knowledge interacts with the global, & to touch on indicators which are potentially decisive for the differential evolution of the 'glocal'.
