dc.description.abstract | Globalization sometimes strengthens existing patterns of social interaction and sometimes
changes these patterns. In both cases the empirical outcomes can be of homogeneous as well
as of heterogeneous character. This means that the process of globalization is ´double edgedª
and impossible to forecast. At best it can be exposed through theory informed empirical
studies of social practice. This paper is a draft of a theoretical and methodological framework
to achieve this. The notion of social fields together with the abstractions of culture,
interaction and agents, is suggested as theoretical and analytical concepts enabling us to grasp
some of the many relationships between globalization and social practice. | en |
