Reflexive Representations

This volume addresses the manifold conjunctures, interactions and disjunctures that occur at various levels of what has come to be rubricated under the buzzword of "globalization". While this term has the merit of reperiodizing our account of the capitalist dynamics, it simultaneously points to a crisis of representation both in political and epistemological terms. Themselves reflexive representations from the social sciences and humanities, the contributions collected in this volume assess some of the manifold aspects of this crisis.
