But what do social actors actually do when using this term? Written from within the political studies and international relations disciplines, and with a particular interest in the US, this book demonstrates that the widespread use of 'global' is more than a linguistic curiosity. It constitutes a distinct political phenomenon of major importance: the negotiation of and play with the notion of the 'new world'. As such, the analysis of the use of 'global' provides fascinating insights into an influential and politically loaded aspect of contemporary imaginations of the world. 410 0$aGlobal studies research series. 606 $aGlobalization 606 $aGlobalization$xSocial aspects 606 $aGlobalization$zUnited States$xHistory 615 0$aGlobalization. 615 0$aGlobalization$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aGlobalization$xHistory. 676 $a306.2 700 $aSelchow$b Sabine$0935280 801 2$bUkMaJRU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910169177903321 996 $aNegotiations of the "New World"$92106457 997 $aUNINA
