Since 2000, most of my research has been focused on globalization. I also teach large introductory courses on the topic at the University of Washington (GEOG/SIS 123), and I have recently published a textbook Introducing Globalization. With chapters on global trade, finance, labor, law, governance, space, and health, this new book explores the ties and tensions of global interdependency in ways that simultaneously underline patterns of uneven development. By taking this evidence-based approach to uneven patterns of global integration, the book also reveals how more simplified representations of 'Globalization' as new, inevitable and flat serve to naturalize neoliberalization. Excerpts, information about e-access, and companion pages for both instructors and students are available from Wiley-Blackwell. Based on research funded by a National Science Foundation CAREER grant, I have also authored another book and over 75 other publications on related themes: including the ways in which market-led dynamics are remaking nation-states, border regions, and the meaning and practices of citizenship. Some of these publications are listed below, including my most recent writing on globalization and global health.
