"Globalization: An Introduction to the End of the Known World"
surveys the history of globalization from the earliest of ancient
texts through contemporary debates and the prospects for
anticipating the new worlds to come. At the end of the twentieth
century, debates over the nature of globalization were unable to
agree on a simple resolution, except to say that globalization is
economic, political, and cultural all at once. Cultural
globalization affects everyone with a smartphone, on which global
youth from Los Angeles to Jakarta listen to Jay-Z and Beyonce.
States are torn in several directions at once by unsettling
economic, political, and cultural forces. Lemert concludes with a
serious outline of the possible ways of imagining what the
still-unknown global world will become next ways including
optimism, caution, and skepticism."
