Abstract

Different theoretical approaches address the connection between global political trends and agendas and national developments and strategies. A neoinstitutionalist and macro-sociological global polity approach assume a “world polity” of cultural orientational patterns like success-beliefs, individualism, universalist norms of fairness and a standardization in education. It assumes gaps between policy “talk” and “action” and regards international governments and non-governmental organisations as driving forces of this form of cultural globalisation.
