Currently,climateandenergygovernancetakesplaceandhaspoliciesenactedacrossdiversespaces and scales, from the local to the global. The interactions between these geographical arenas raise importantquestionsastowherethepowerandauthorityforgoverningclimatechange(should)lie. Some scholars stress the importance of the planetary scale when heralding a rapid and structural change in global governance, arguing that the main approaches today are no longer sufficient to bring about societal change with the speed required to mitigate and adapt to earth system transformation. Others state that efforts to build an effective and legitimate global regime are unlikely to succeed, given the continuing friction in intergovernmental interests and abilities to implementsuchtoughcommitments. Closelylinkedtothisareissuesoflegitimacyanddemocracy.Accordingtosome,theclimatechange conundrum is increasingly depicted as a global humanitarian cause, whereby a thoroughly depoliticizedpopulistdiscourseisproducedinwhichdecisionbmakingisincreasinglyconsideredtobe a question of expert knowledge and not of political position. Adepts of such technobmanagerial approacharguethatdemocracyistooslowandimbuedwithshortbtermandlocalinteresttotackle climate change. Opponents are however questioning the legitimacy of technocracy or the equal representativeness of different voices within global governance. Suchlike questions of democratic pressures and the alleged dominance of super powers are increasingly raised by postbcolonial perspectives,referringtoconceptssuchas carbonimperialism and carbondemocracy. Lastly, the political space of climate and energy governance is also challenged by the presumed intrusionofglobalcorporationsthroughlobbying,agendasettingandecobefficiencyinitiatives.some arguethatthesecorporationspresentthemselvesasproponentsinrespondingtotheclimatecrisis whilesimultaneouslyopeningupnewopportunitiesforvaluecreation,therebyrecalibratingtherole ofthestate:fromactinginthecollectiveinterestofcitizenstobecomingaprotectorofcorporate profitability.

The Westphalian state no longer serves as the sole site of decisionbmaking processes or belonging in a globalized world. As a consequence of political, economic, cultural, environmentalprocessesofglobalization,tensionsarerisingamonglocal,nationalandglobalforces. Theincreasinglycomplexwebofconnectionsandinterdependenciesmakesthatglobalchoicesand actions sometimes have repercussions for people and communities locally, nationally or internationally.therefore,claimsforredistributionandmovementsforrecognitionincreasinglylook beyondtheterritorialstateandnationaleconomy. The concept of global citizenship serves to understand what belonging, justice, ethics and human rightscanmeaninaglobalizingworld.ontheonehand,theoretically,citizenshipcomeswithcertain rightsandduties.ontheotherhand,practically,itisstronglybuiltupontheideaofbelonging,which hasitsinherentinbandexclusionmechanismsinthesociobeconomicandpoliticalfield.inshort,the workshop will focus on the possibility and limitations of inclusive global citizenship, both in theory and in practice. Some of the topics that will be discussed include social movements, international human rights law and the citizenship of illegal immigrants, unaccompanied refugee minors, labor migrants. Keyquestions: How does globalization andtheunequalinternationalpowerrelationsthatcomewithit affecthumanrightsculture(s)?isglobalcitizenshipwithoutexclusionpossible?

Keywords:globalcommoditychains,localBglobalconnections;governance;frontier;capitalism Today s worldbeconomy is characterized by a strong interconnection between local and inter/transnational dynamics in the production and circulation of commodities. Tracing and understandinghowlocalizedresourcesaredrawnintheproduction,distributionandconsumptionof globalcommoditiesalongdifferentnodesofamanufacturinganddistributionnetworkisakeyway toexploreandunderstandthecomplexrelationshipsbetweencapital,labour,andstatesintoday s worldbeconomy. Fromanacademicperspective,thestudyofglobalcommoditiesisnoteasilyhandledbyparadigms from one specific field of study. This is shown in contemporary multidisciplinary efforts from the fields of economic geography, business sociology, development studies and world history to grasp thisphenomenonintermsofthe governance of globalcommoditychains (Gereffi&Korzeniewicz 1994),the embeddedness of globalproductionnetworks inlocalsocialrelationsandinstitutions (Hendersone.a.2002),oryettherecentwaveofattentionfortheroleof commodityfrontiers and chains in the functioning of capitalism as a world ecology(moore 2016, Tsing 2015).

The main purpose of this workshop is to bring together the expertise within GCGS on the history, politicsandgovernanceofglobalcommodities. Keyquestions: What are the worldbhistorical/worldbecological dimensions of commodity chains, frontiers and expansion?

It is however the geographicalmovementofpeoplethathascreatedaparticularlyvastliteratureandhasledtothe developmentofagenuineinterdisciplinaryfieldofstudy. Fromthisangle,themobilitiesBparadigmhasrecentlygeneratedacountermovement,bornfromthe critique of those that see the mobility discourse as an elitist, capitalist enterprise that does not concern the majority of people, both historically and today, and those that see opposing developments leading to heightened immobility, e.g. the construction of walls and fences to block uncontrolled borderbcrossings. These critiques have brought forth an immobilitiesbparadigm, referring to the proverbial 99% of the world population that can or will not move across internationalborders.buthowusefulisittoreplacethemobilityparadigmwithanimmobilitybone? Inthisworkshop,wetrytotacklethisquestionbylookingattheconceptsofmobilityandimmobility not as mutually exclusive, but as two ends of a spectrum, within which many hybrid forms of (im)mobilitycanbefound.withinthiscontinuum,wewilldiscusstheroleofbordersandboundaries, assessing whether these concepts can be helpful intermediaries for a better understanding of the dynamics of societal and individual (im)mobilities throughout history. The workshop places these questionssquarelywithinthefieldofglobalstudies,focusingonthecobconstructionofthelocaland theglobalthroughoutthecontemporarybhistoricalglobalisationprocessthatisincreasinglyaffecting these(im)mobilities. Inordertoopenthediscussionandprovideuswithanumberofconcreteexamplesoftheuseofthe borderb and (im)mobility paradigms in empirical research, four scholars from different disciplines withintheghent Centre for Global Studies will present examples from their own work, which includesdealingwiththequantitativemeasurementofmobilityandborders,peopleonthemovein Africa,migrantwomenandwomenseekingasylumin/toEurope,andthe(virtual)mobilityoftheJain diaspora. Keyquestions: What kind of movements do we refer to when we use the concept of mobility in terms of geographical scales (transnational B internal) and/or objectives (work, tourism, commuting, flight,etc.)? Howcanwemeasurethesemovementsinaninclusiveway,allowingforcomparisonsbetween them? How can the concept of borders enhance our understanding of the interplay between mobilities and immobilities at different geographical scales? Is our understanding of borders
