Produktbeschreibung
This fourth volume analyses the recent global transformation that heralded the supposed demise of "Third World" and the emergence of the "Global South". Essays in this collection explore whether the distinction between "Global South" and "Global North" is useful for understanding the current global constellation. It does so by casting a wide exploratory net, not limiting itself to the dominant politico-economic meaning, but addressing historical transformations of world-interpretation as well as wider cultural-intellectual meanings. It draws on analyses in global history, conceptual history, comparative literature, social and political theory, political philosophy and social history to develop a comprehensive inter-disciplinary perspective on the uses of "South" and "North". Peter Wagner is Research Professor of Sociology at the Catalan Institute for Research and Advanced Studies (ICREA) and at the University of Barcelona.
