Advance the spatial theorisation of globalisation by shifting analytical focus from rigid territorial hierarchies toward relational processes, actor networks, and practices.
Conducted a conceptual analysis challenging conventional scalar and territorial models of globalisation.
Synthesized actor-network concepts and everyday social practices to formulate a topographical understanding of spatial relations.
Illustrated theoretical arguments through conceptual discussions of urban economic geography and place-based politics.
Conceptualized globalisation as an open topographical meshwork constituted by actor networks of varying duration rather than distinct, nested geographical scales.
Demonstrated that urban economies and local politics emerge through relational ties connecting distant actors and practices across space.
