is a forum for conversations amongst activists and academics on issues relating to science and democracy.
This article is intended to contribute to the process of building a set of tools that will help advance the debate on the shape and trajectory of global economic integration. Discussion of global-scale
economic trends is inherently a large and unwieldy topic. Tools are needed to block out some of the \'noise\' and allow us to focus on what is important, but we must choose carefully. Those studies that
rely solely on macro-level statistics, such as trade and investment, cannot help but render invisible the detailed contours of the world economy. This is especially true when we seek to understand the role of personal and firm-to-firm relationships and
the influence of power and politics on the
development process, things that I hold to be crucial aspects of political economy and to the crafting of effective economic development policy and business strategy. How Do We Define Value Chains and Production Networks? by Timothy J.Sturgeon, IDS Bulletin, 01 January, 2001
