Sinopsis

"Global ideas is an attempt to explain how it is possible that, although the same idea travels around the globe at a high speed, local realities are still very different. While this book can be seen as joining the discussion on globalization and its paradoxical character, it is unique in its rich collection of cases and its frame of reference consisting of a combination of organization theory, new institutionalism and sociology of translation. The focus is not so much on organizations but on organizing, which is global both in its scope and in its imitation of global models. This book shows what is travelling and how; it moves between countries and disciplines."

Críticas

"This volume invites the readers to rethink globalisation by showing how the ideas about relative scale and the instruments that embody those ideas are spreading from one place to the next. By putting to such good use the notion of translation, the book's many authors reveal size itself to be a highly contested resource. A relativist book in the best sense of the word." Bruno Latour, Professor, Ecole des mines de Paris, France
