Abstract
The paper adopts a critical perspective on contemporary debates around the political economy of globalisation and localisation, arguing that these need to be understood within the context of neoliberalism. Far from representing the basis of a new global-local "order', the current conditions are chronically unstable, contradictory and crisis-ridden. If spatial relations are being restructured under the jungle law of neoliberalism - in which localities are pursuing short-term, beggar-thy-neighbour strategies in the face of deregulating global competition - then a more appropriate characterisation would be global-local disorder. -Authors
