The Paradox of Regionalisation within Globalisation: Some Theoretical Concerns

  • Leila Simona Talani
Chapter
Part of the International Political Economy Series book series (IPES)

Abstract

Despite there being no consensus on how to define globalisation or, as we have seen in the previous chapter, even on whether it exists, scholars of IPE from a variety of different academic standpoints are somewhat paradoxically in agreement that regionalisation is indeed happening. What is more controversial is however its relation with globalisation.
