Globalization, Urbanization, and Civil Society is an
interdisciplinary compilation of chapters concerning civil society
in the global geopolitical context. The establishment of civil
society is essential for urbanism and the global community because
it is the sense and essence of development concerning what
humankind is, as a collective entity on the globe. This
thought-provoking book covers the multidimensional aspects, issues,
challenges, and consequences of geopolitics and globalization on
civil society, including freedom in the public sphere, alienation,
neo-fascism, social cohesion, racial inequality, political
narcissism, political-economic exceptionalism, Islamic radicalism,
social justice, and resistance. The author brings a fresh and
essentially non-Western critical perspective to bear on the
fundamental challenges faced by civil society as a result of the
globalization of corporate capitalism in the Digital Age, as well
as providing a rich perspective on colonialism. This book will
appeal to scholars and graduate students of geopolitics and
globalization, global development, sociology, international
relations, cultural studies, psychology, and philosophy, as well as
practitioners and policymakers who are interested in
interdisciplinary approaches in the field of global studies.
