Globalisation is about the macrostructuration of the world order. It is a process in which exchange and interactive relations and orientation bases are becoming global. It is a boundary-eroding process in the sense that it crumbles institutional boundaries of territorial communities and increases interdependency on a global scale. The objective of this paper is to conceptualise the global-local dialectic from the point of view of strategic adjustment needs of territorial communities. Special attention is paid to local policy responses for globalisation and general aspects of local adjustment strategies.
