Challenging the conventional view that globalization embodies a new
and inexorable process, this book analyzes the political
foundations and choices involved in contemporary arrangements in
the world. Rather than treating politics as contention for control
over an unforeseeable future, the book explains the background by
which the world has arrived at its present state. Thus, the author
presents a view that emphasizes continuity with the past while
still acknowledging what is new in the present. Invoking many
examples throughout, the author bolsters the theoretical analysis
in an extended case study of Malaysia.
