Declining or Waning
- Traditional Neoliberalism:
Research centered on traditional neoliberal policies, particularly those advocating for unfettered market access and deregulation, has seen a decline as scholars increasingly critique these models in light of recent economic crises. - State-Centric Approaches:
The focus on state-centric analyses that prioritize the role of the nation-state in economic governance is waning, as there is a growing recognition of transnational actors and global networks in shaping economic outcomes. - Static Economic Models:
There is a noticeable decrease in the application of static economic models that do not account for the dynamic nature of global economic interactions, as scholars seek more adaptive frameworks. - Universal Solutions to Development:
The previous emphasis on universal developmental strategies is diminishing, giving way to more context-specific analyses that consider local conditions and histories. - Binary Dichotomies in Globalization:
Research that simplifies globalization into binary oppositions (e.g., developed vs. developing countries) is becoming less common, as scholars recognize the complexities and variances within global interactions.
