Not sure why anchor keeps cutting off the last 6 minutes of my uploads, but I'll work on it!

Professor Renée Marlin-Bennett researches global problems involving information and how it flows, borders, bodies, and power.  From these points of departure, she ventures into international theory, pragmatism, international political sociology, and global political economy.  Much of her previous work has explored the evolution of rules that order global practices as well as those that provide the basis for disorder.  She has examined substantive areas such as trade, intellectual property, information, and privacy  to examine how contestation, rhetorical frames, and path dependence contribute to development of global orders.

Her current research on global problems focuses on instances of power and how they can congeal into governance or disruption of governance.  Much of her work now looks to the Internet and global sites within cyberspace as opportunities for complicating our understanding of the practices of global politics in the Information Age.  She also researches the relation between the embodied human and these global practices and the politics of borders, understood broadly.
