Considers the effects of globalization in a regulationist context, focusing on the fragmentation of social relations, formation of regional economic blocs, triadization, & strengthening of bourgeois-capitalist & patriarchical societies. It is argued that neoliberal politics & the globalization process lead to more intensive supranational regionalization, & that, despite the dominant principle of competition, adversarial strategies & efforts at transformation can form a regional development model. To accomplish this, the changing relationship between global & national forms of regulation, which has resulted from the crisis of Fordism, must be understood. Political (reregulation of the globalization process & accommodation of neoliberal politics) & economic (establishment of development corridors) supranational regionalizations are described as forms of specific connections to a restructuring world market. The case of Tratado de Libre Comercio/North American Free Trade Agreement (TLC/NAFTA) is presented, & understood as an improvement on post-Fordist supranational regionalization & a blueprint for post-Fordist restructuring, eg, an institutional framework for capital accumulation. The possibility of a global post-Fordist structure remains open, & a critical theory of capitalist globalization is needed to comprehend it. 62 References. Adapted from the source document.
