Propositions
I. Capitalism must be analyzed as a set of social relations that are mediated through the simultaneous operation of gendered, sexualized, and racialized hierarchies
- Analyses of globalization from the perspectives of both the south and the north are crucial, focusing on place and on the local, as well as on space and general globalizing processes and their coconstitution
- We recover place, but not to celebrate experience or the local per se, but rather to "reveal a local that is constitutively global)
- Collaborative research must be undertaken with subjects of globalization in peripheralized places
