Abstract Since the term globalization erupted in public and academic discourses in the late-1980s, the hyperglobal perspective has been a prominent framing offered to understand global phenomena. Despite important challenges, it has remained extremely popular with its rhetoric exerting a powerful influence across the political spectrum, and in business and policy circles. This article argues that one reason for this durability is its inadvertent reproduction by the traditional understandings of “local” and “global” utilized in frameworks critiquing the hyperglobal perspective. More specifically, as scholars have noted, the global-local tends to be marked by dichotomous binaries and placed in a scalar hierarchy where the global overpowers the local. To side-step the issues emerging from the global-local approach, a conceptual rubric focusing on the “global-particular” relationship is offered as an alternative. This orientation helps prevent the importation of the dichotomous binaries and scalar hierarchies that reproduce hyperglobal imaginaries. As a result, it is easier to retain the complexity and contingency of global dynamics, and by extension, challenge hyperglobal framings. A case study of the global foreign exchange market is used to elaborate on the framework and to show why it provides a stronger point of departure for researching and theorizing globalization.

对抗超全局框架:一种分析方法

摘要 自从 80 年代后期全球化一词在公共和学术话语中爆发以来,超全球视角一直是理解全球现象的重要框架。尽管面临重大挑战,但它仍然非常受欢迎,因为它的言辞在整个政治领域以及商业和政策界都产生了强大的影响。本文认为,这种持久性的一个原因是它无意中被批评超全球视角的框架中对“本地”和“全球”的传统理解所复制。更具体地说,正如学者们所指出的,全球 - 地方往往以二元二元为标志,并被置于一个全局压倒局部的标量层次结构中。为了回避全球-本地方法中出现的问题,提供了一个专注于“全球-特殊”关系的概念性标题作为替代方案。这种方向有助于防止输入复制超全局想象的二分二进制和标量层次结构。因此,更容易保留全球动态的复杂性和偶然性,进而挑战超全球框架。全球外汇市场的案例研究用于阐述该框架并说明为什么它为研究全球化和理论化提供了一个更有力的出发点。进而挑战超全球框架。全球外汇市场的案例研究用于阐述该框架并说明为什么它为研究全球化和理论化提供了一个更有力的出发点。进而挑战超全球框架。全球外汇市场的案例研究用于阐述该框架,并说明为什么它为研究全球化和理论化提供了一个更有力的出发点。
