[c] André Spicer is an Associate Professor of Organisation Studies at Warwick Business School.  His research focuses on how globalisation is achieved and resisted in and around organisations. He is investigating (1) the implications of globalisation for public broadcasters, (2) the organization of global social movements and (3) responses by organised labour to restructuring initiatives driven by globalisation – particularly in the port industry. Underlying this empirical research is a theoretical commitment to understanding globalisation as discursively negotiated process of re-scaling space. André has lectured in New Zealand, Australia, Sweden and Russia.  For further information see:  http://andre.spicer.googlepages.com/home
