Project activities

Research for the GLOBAL project is organized into four work packages based on different methodologies:

  • WP1: national and regional party and cleavage systems, global networks and transnational parties;
  • WP2: text analysis with large language models of manifestos, global actors and international organizations;
  • WP3: legislation and roll-calls analysis in national, regional and global assemblies, and international treaties;
  • WP4: global survey of 12 world polities on transnational groups, identities and political action

Within each work package, a number of tasks are distinguished based on cross-country comparative and transnational approaches. The comparative approach covers the following polities: Brazil, China, Egypt, Europe (taken as a whole), India, Indonesia, Japan, Mexico, Nigeria, South Africa, Turkey, United States. The transnational approach focuses on supra-national actors and international organizations.

Research is regularly presented at conferences, with working papers and articles in scientific journals.

GLOBAL also organises workshops and invites scholars to present related work and build an international network.

Data, codes and codebooks produced during research will be available through this website upon publication of empirical results.

Results are presented in the GLOBAL Working Paper series and in subsequent journal articles. At the end of the funding period, the project will lead to a book on “The Globalisation of Politics” by the PI that follows on common theoretical foundations the books on the nationalisation and Europeanisation of politics (Cambridge University Press, 2004 and 2015).
