This book examines how different levels and forms of human
collectivity have interacted, voluntarily or coercively, and how
these transformed societies and polities. Every size and type of
human collective involve co-operation among members and competition
with other groups. The two most recent trends in human relations -
individualism and economic globalisation - have contributed to
authoritarianism in politics and inequality among citizens. This
book analyses how collective action might offset the most
destructive consequences for well-being of these two tendencies. It
explores these manifestations of collective action and their impact
on social relations and social policies in the developed world.
Further, the volume sets out a programme for more progressive and
egalitarian future for global populations. Engaging, accessible and
transdisciplinary, this book will be of great interest to scholars
and researchers of politics and public policy, sociology, social
psychology, social policy and social work, as well as political
philosophy, political economy and migration studies.
