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.
