Economic globalisation is a complex process that affects everybody. There are many stories told about globalisation, that it benefits everybody, that some people benefit at the expense of others, or that everybody stands to lose from it. So which is true?
Stories help us simplify and understand reality, however, each one is focused on describing only particular aspects of the complex whole. Each story highlights particular scales, actors and normative values.
In this interview, we unscramble the Rubik's cube of dialogues that surround globalisation with Anthea Roberts. We discuss the importance of stories and metaphors, the dominant narratives of globalisation, and how identifying the underlying values can help us find fertile ground for co-operation or identify points of tension. By unravelling these stories Anthea demonstrates a powerful approach to understanding complex systems.
