Introduction : Mirrors, magicians and mutinies of globalization / Markus Kornprobst ... [et al.] -- Closed fist, empty hand or open hand? Globalization and historical analogies / Markus Kornprobst -- Reflexive mirror : everything takes place as if threats were going global / Vincent Pouliot -- Mutiny or mirror? Politicizing the limit/ethics of the Tobin tax / James Brassett -- Bridging commonsense : pragmatic metaphors and the 'Schengen laboratory' / Ruben Zaiotti -- Do metaphors of globalization destroy the public service? / Andrâe Spicer -- In paradise : metaphors of money-launderingbrighten up the dark side of globalization / Rainer Hèulsse -- Waging wars in Iraq : the metaphoric constitution of wars and enemies / David Mutimer -- Technology as metaphor : tropes of construction,destruction and instruction in globalization / Timothy W. Luke -- Conceptualizing glocal organization : from rhizome to E=mc p2 s in becoming post-human / Sian Sulllivan -- Imagining the future : globalization, post-modernism and criticism / Imre Szeman -- Beyond sovereignty and the state of nature:metaphorical readings of global order/ Nisha Shah -- Where is 'the fork in the road'? Over the horizon! An inquiry into the failure of UN reform / Richard Falk - Commentary / K.M. Fierke -- Conclusion : Metaphors we globalize by / Markus Kornprobst ... [et al.].

'Global village'. 'Empire'. 'Global Marketplace'. 'Network Society'.These metaphors have become so deeply entrenched in discussions of globalization that it is impossible to understand the globalizing world without them. But, how specifically do these metaphors help us make senseof globalization? Metaphors of Globalization inquires into the power and politics of metaphors in the making of our globalizing era. By examining globalization via an analysis of metaphors, this groundbreaking volume sheds new light on an overlooked dimension of global politics, redresses outdated understandingsand conceptualizations, and provides a critical analysis of existing approaches to the study of globalization. The contributors provides an interdisciplinary approach, with case studies in global finance, global governance, literary theory, political theory, anthropology and sociology.
