	History / IPROG / Institute of Globalization Studies (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-02)
		The Institute of Globalization Studies is a Moscow-based non-profit, non-governmental and non-partisan agency with the main purposes of applied scholarly research, public policy advocacy, and political project-building.
		The Institute's strategic mission, as conceived by its new leadership, is to inform and influence public debate in Russia and abroad on the issues of globalization, center-periphery relationship in the world system and within nations, as well as international security.
		The Institute intends to pursue this mission in close cooperation and dialogue with like-minded agencies and individuals in Russia and abroad, particularly in those countries that have been viewed as peripheral and neglected by Russia's official diplomacy and political mainstream.

	Globalization:
		Gary Madison's paper, "Globalization: Challenges and Opportunities" is the first in a series of working papers to be circulated by McMaster University's new Institute on Globalization and the Human Condition, directed by Dr. William Coleman of McMaster's Department of Political Science.
		The Institute focuses not only upon the economic, technological and political changes often thought to be at the core of globalization, but also on the social and cultural changes attendant upon it.
		Globalization may have as its effect a certain leveling of cultural differences and, owing to the consumerism it promotes, may make for increasing similarity in lifestyles around the world, but it is difficult to see how this consequence of globalization may not actually have decidedly beneficial effects.

	Critical Theory Institute
		Critical Theory Institute at the University of California, Irvine begins a new three-year project devoted to the general topic of "globalization" and a critical analysis of just what forces constitute "globalization" as the term and its related concepts are used today.
		We understand "globalization" in terms of communications' models, which we terms "networks" to distinguish these signifying practices from those governed by more narrowly conceived linguistic and semiotic models, which were developed before the advent of the technologies partially responsible for the new globalization.
		Insofar as "transnational," "post-national," "global," or other terms designate a research "area," it remains one that is still at its earliest formulation in terms of the diferent disciplines appropriate to its description and analysis.
