`global-map' is pretty much always the current global map, except in
some unusual circumstances (e.g. it could be different within special
modes such as isearch, tho IIRC isearch does not affect the
current-global-map and uses another mechanism instead).
One of the main packages that uses use-global-map to change the
current-global-map is Viper.
