The session calls for papers which discuss exacerbating global inequalities with new forms and dynamics unfolding today.  The panel is interested in examining the issues of global inequality under deglobalizing trends from historical, comparatives and structural approaches. We welcome papers of the following topics, but we are open to any other topics related to the issue of global inequality and methodological approaches:

  • trend of deglobalization and nationalism
  • democracy and fascism
  • conflict, war, and development
  • income inequality and global hierarchy of wealth
  • gap between top 1% and the rest
  • analyses of the newly-industrializing countries (NICs), the group of BRICs (Brazil, Russia, India, and China, with South Africa sometimes included), and the Latin America
  • the rise and fall of new hegemon
  • global and regional social movements in the context of deglobalization, nationalism, and neoliberalism
  • relationship between within-country and between-country inequality
  • generational gap and conflict
  • migration, climate change and environment
  • gender and ethnic politics

Papers may provide theoretical, empirical, historical, or methodological discussions centered around the theme.
