Produktbeschreibung

Globalization is usually said to be about markets, power and culture. "Whither Globalization? "goes further, arguing that globalization may also be understood as a way of knowing and representing the world. Mittelman debunks several prevalent myths about globalization and 'anti-globalization', presenting alternatives to this force and indicating a new common sense about future world order. Drawing on considerable original research, this book shows how globalization itself and globalization studies have changed since 9/11. Compact and accessible, "Whither Globalization?" is a major contribution to the study of globalization by one of the leading scholars in the field and is essential reading for students of international relations and international political economy. Key content includes: Part 1: Power Part 2: Knowledge Part 3: Ideology Part 4: Transformative Possibilities
