Product Description

1. 1 Researching the global everyday of women activists 1. 1 Researching the global everyday of women activists: Experiencing and doing globalisation Going through the broad spectrum of globalisation research and literature, one might be astonished at how much it assumes the force of global change, and how little of this literature demonstrates this force in an empirically grounded way. This study, being based on six months of empirical research in Malaysia in 2004, sets out to counter this lack of thick description of globalisation processes. It takes up the challenge of researching the global everyday (Appadurai 2000, 18) of civil society actors in Malaysia and focuses on how social activists belonging to different branches of the womens movement selectively app- priate, transform and even create global meanings and materialise them in local practices. The methodological endeavour of combining globalisation research and ethnography has been taken up by a diversity of authors. Burawoy and his research team have developed a complex methodological framework by focusing on the experiential dimensions of globalisation. They want to produce a grounded globalisation or perspectives on globalisations from below (Burawoy 2000b, 338, 341). This perspective is very fruitful, as the notion of experiencing globalisation as forces, connections, and imaginations (Burawoy et al. eds. 2000) relocates the global in the local and ties both together in mutual constitution.
