Abstract
This article advances the argument that economic geography has prioritized the understanding of processes over the evaluation of outcomes. The article contrasts the limited engagement by economic geographers with globalization’s environmental effects with a growing body of work outside geography. It also demonstrates how hybrid approaches may best be able to capture the ways in which processes of economic globalization drive environmental outcomes. The article concludes with a worked example of ongoing research into the environmental impacts of foreign direct investment to illustrate how such an approach may engage globalization “on the ground.”
