This volume of original essays argues that current scholarship in international political economy (IPE) is too highly focused on powerful states and large international institutions. The contributors examine specific forms of âeveryday' actions to demonstrate how small-scale actors and their decisions can shape the global economy. They analyse a range of seemingly ordinary or subordinate actors, including peasants, working classes and trade unions, lower-middle and middle classes, female migrant labourers and Eastern diasporas, and examine how they have agency in transforming their political and economic environments. This book offers a novel way of thinking about everyday forms of change across a range of topical issues including globalisation, international finance, trade, taxation, consumerism, labour rights and regimes. It will appeal to students and scholars of politics, international relations, political economy and sociology.}, Doi = {10.1017/CBO9780511491375.009}, Key = {fds259155} } @misc{fds70630, Title = {Diasporic agents and trans-Asian flows in the making of Asian modernity}, Booktitle = {Everyday Politics of the World Economy}, Publisher = {Cambridge}, Editor = {Hobson and Seabrooke}, Year = {2007}, url = {http://www.cambridge.org/uk/catalogue/catalogue.asp?isbn=9780521877725}, Key = {fds70630} } @misc{fds259134, Author = {Wilson, A}, Title = {Thailand and Sex Tourism}, Booktitle = {The Palgrave Dictionary of Transnational History}, Publisher = {Palgrave Macmillan}, Year = {2005}, Key = {fds259134} } @misc{fds259136, Author = {Wilson, A}, Title = {Bangkok, the Bubble City}, Booktitle = {Wounded Cities: Destruction and Reconstruction in a Globalized World.}, Year = {2003}, Key = {fds259136} } @misc{fds259154, Author = {Wilson, A}, Title = {The Transnational Geography of Sexual Rights}, Pages = {251-265}, Booktitle = {Truth Claims: Representation and Human Rights}, Publisher = {Rutgers University Press}, Editor = {Bradley, M and Petro, P}, Year = {2002}, ISBN = {9780813530529}, url = {http://hdl.handle.net/10161/7367 Duke open access}, Abstract = {Among the signal developments of the last third of the twentieth century has been the emergence of a new politics of human rights. The transnational circulation of norms, networks, and representations has advanced human rights claims in ways that have reshaped global practices. Just as much as the transnational flow of capital, the new human rights politics are part of the phenomenon that has come to be termed globalization. Shifting the focus from the sovereignty of the nation to the rights of individuals, regardless of nationality, the interplay between the local and the global in these new human rights claims are fundamentally redrawing the boundaries between the rights of individuals, states, and the international community. Truth Claims brings together for the first time some of the best new work from a variety of disciplinary and geographic perspectives exploring the making of human rights claims and the cultural politics of their representations. All of the essays, whether dealing with the state and its victims, receptions of human rights claims, or the status of transnational rights claims in the era of globalization, explore the potentialities of an expansive humanistic framework. Here, the authors move beyond the terms -- and the limitations -- of the universalism/relativism debate that has so defined existing human rights literature.}, Key = {fds259154} } @misc{fds259133, Author = {Wilson, A}, Title = {Patriarchy in Feminist Theory}, Volume = {3}, Pages = {1493-1497}, Booktitle = {Routledge International Encyclopedia of Women}, Editor = {Kramarae, C and Spender, D}, Year = {2000}, Key = {fds259133} } @misc{fds335508, Author = {Wilson, A}, Title = {Routledge International Encyclopedia of Women}, Volume = {3}, Pages = {1493-1497}, Booktitle = {Routledge International Encyclopedia of Women}, Publisher = {Routledge}, Editor = {Kramarae, C and Spender, D}, Year = {2000}, ISBN = {9780415920889}, Abstract = {In over 900 signed A-Z entries from US and Europe, Asia, the Americas, Oceania, and the Middle East, the women who pioneered the field from its inception collaborate with the new scholars who are shaping the future of women's studies to ...}, Key = {fds335508} } @misc{fds259150, Author = {Wilson, A}, Title = {American Catalogues of Asian Brides}, Year = {1988}, Key = {fds259150} } %% Papers Published @article{fds347737, Author = {Wilson, A}, Title = {Invited Remarks on The Twilight of Cutting}, Journal = {Somatosphere: Science, Medicine, and Anthropology (online)}, Year = {2019}, Abstract = {Invited remarks on Saida Hodžić, The Twilight of Cutting: African Activism and Life after NGOs.}, Key = {fds347737} } %% Journal Articles @article{fds369231, Author = {Wilson, A}, Title = {Desiring infrastructure}, Journal = {Dialogues in Human Geography}, Volume = {13}, Number = {1}, Pages = {86-90}, Year = {2023}, Month = {March}, url = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1177/20438206221143589}, Abstract = {Infrastructure has been an object of political action in its form as public good.

Its point is as simple as calling attention to a telephone wire—or these days, to a cell phone tower: that infrastructures are involved in social relations and, in many cases, shape the conditions for relational life. Intimate relations involve places—the example in this essay is the public latrine—or conduits— like the telephone or computer discussed below. But the infrastructure for intimacy reaches beyond the specific forms of the SMS or the WC. Tracing circuits of pipes and cables embeds intimate relations in unpredictable junctures of material and symbolic power.}, Doi = {10.1086/682919}, Key = {fds318220} } @article{fds318221, Author = {Wilson, A}, Title = {Intimität.

This introduction provides a synthetic overview of the conflicted encounter between anthropologists (John Kelly, Aihwa Ong, Anna Tsing, and Sylvia Yanagisako) and Hardt and Negri's vision that is staged in this thematic cluster of Focaal. It reviews the anthropologists' three main critiques of the Empire trilogy, the analysis of state and labor, the scale of analysis, and the ethics of global theorizing, which point to an apparent disciplinary rift between global ethnography and radical philosophy.

Based on long-term ethnographic fieldwork in Bangkok, this article traces the history of cross-border flows and shifting political economic arrangements that remapped the sacred geography of the city. It considers the consolidation of a pantheon of enchanted figures into a modern 'prosperity religion' that is practiced in commercial enterprises as well as in daily life across the country.
