New Labour and the theory of globalization
Abstract
This article argues that the theoretical basis of the New Labour project
was sociological in its framing, drawing in particular on the ideas of
Anthony Giddens. The theory of globalization, individualization and

sociologists such as David Lockwood in the 1980s retains its relevance as
an analytical resource in contemporary capitalist society.
Key words: Anthony Giddens, globalization, Marx, New Labour,

aphorism, ‘there is no such thing as society, only individuals and their
