Descriere completă

This book advances our understanding of the dynamics of globalization; the forces that drive it forward, as well as the dynamics of anti-globalization, particularly in its neoliberal form. Moreover this valuable collection draws our attention towards efforts to construct 'another world' beyond neoliberalism, which, it is generally agreed, is economically dysfunctional, socially and ethically reprehensible, and politically unsustainable.To advance our understanding of these forces and associated processes, this volume brings together eleven specialists in the political economy of international relations and globalization to reflect on, and analyze from different theoretical perspectives, the diverse dimensions of the globalization process.This book is a completely revised and updated version of "Globalization and Antiglobalization" taking into account significant developments in the dynamics of globalization and antiglobalization over the past five years. It includes a new introduction and a new conclusion, as well as eight entirely new chapters contributed by authors as diverse and different in their perspectives as James Petras, Walden Bello, Norman Girvan, Paul Bowles, Terry Gibbs, Lisa Thompson and Teivo Teivainen. These dynamics are contextualized with essays on the Caribbean, Latin America, East Asia and Southern Africa.It is an invaluable volume for students, academics and activists concerned with creating a different world, one that is not dominated by George W. Bush's 'forces of freedom' but engages a global civil society in a process of redesigning the global economy- a truly new world order.
