Making Globalization Happen (eBook, ePUB)

The Untold Story of Power, Profits, Privilege

Beschreibung

In Making Globalization Happen: The Untold Story of Power, Profits, Privilege, Sripati explains how, when, through which entities, and for what purposes economic globalization was catalyzed and its effects on the Global South in general and South Asia in particular. Based on an innovative international constitutional political economy framework, Sripati examines how the Western classical liberal constitution has shaped international law developments in this post-colonial era given its salience and comprehensive scope. Presenting a comprehensive narrative of economic globalization, Making Globalization Happen accurately and comprehensively links constitutional globalization to the following UN family-created agendas: peacebuilding, conflict prevention, human security, protection of civilians, sustainable development, global war on terrorism, women, peace, and security, poverty reduction or market-oriented development, ending conflict-related sexual violence, and justice (climate, criminal, and transitional). Sripati simultaneously provides the missing constitutional foundation for globalization and the fields that it has spawned: global studies and law and political economy. With these ground-breaking insights, Making Globalization Happen: The Untold Story of Power, Profits, Privilege clearly illustrates who drove constitutional globalization and for whose benefit: the UN family and transnational capitalists. Thus, it rips away the facade of UN family-driven peace, justice, human rights, democracy, and development to expose it as a narrative of power, profit, and privilege for transnational capitalists and debt, death, and despair for the Global South.

Autor

Vijayashri Sripati has served as a visiting scholar at the Trafficking and Social Justice Institute in the College of Health and Human Services at the University of Toledo, Ohio (2019-2023). Her work intersects three disciplines that developed in parallel during the 1990s: Western constitutional law, public international law, and international political economy. Sripati's Constitution-Making Under UN Auspices: Fostering Dependency in Sovereign Lands (OUP, 2020) and Making Globalization Happen: An Untold Story of Power, Profits, Privilege (OUP, 2024) have shown that, since the mid-1980s, the UN family has co-promoted the classical liberal constitution, engendering two concurrent but new disciplines: global studies and international constitutional law/constitutional political economy. By providing the parental or constitutional foundation for these disciplines, Sripati's work elaborates upon what drives global politico-economic governance: the international constitutional order.
