Background

Recognised as a study group in 1977; granted research committee status in 1978.

Objectives

Focuses on the impacts of regionalism and globalisation on different levels of governance—domestic and international. The committee is currently examining globalisation as a factor forcing a restructuring of societies, interests, coalitions, party behaviour, state structures and roles at various levels of political and economic activity—local, provincial, sub-national regions, transnational regional clusters, nation states, international regions, multilateral and plurilateral regimes; globalisation as a contributor to the growth of agency among private and public actors and to changes in bargaining position among them in policy networks linking them within policy domains.
