English term or phrase: Politics of Scale
"Politics of Scale" is the title of a section in an article. I am also trying to find the best possible translation for "multi-scalar" in the following context:

Theories of Clientism and the Politics of Scale

"A multi-scalar approach provides a dynamic understanding of the interrelationship between diverse political scales – municipal, state, national, and transnational - and highlights the shifting nature of clientelistic practices in Mexico and the involvement of diverse political actors at multiple scales. [...]"

I know it's not much context, but all suggestions welcome!

Thanks in advance!
