Overview

The essays in this volume bring together scholars of postcolonial and lesbian and gay studies in order to examine, from multiple perspectives, the narratives that have sought to define globalization. These scholars have tried not only to assess the validity of the claims made for globalization they have also attempted to identify the tactics and rhetoric strategies through which these claims - and through which global circulation - are constructed and operate.
