This extensive yet concise introduction to the phenomenon of
globalization looks at its economic, environmental, and security
dimensions as interpreted from different political points of view.
Globalization: A Reference Handbook goes beyond the typical focus
on multinational corporations and the wired world to explore the
full scope of a process that actually began well before the dawn of
the Digital Age. This timely, highly informative resource describes
the development of globalization, especially in the era from World
War II to the present, covering not only its economic aspects, but
crucial, interrelated environmental and security issues as well.
Rather than limit itself to one interpretation, the book offers an
unbiased review of the definitions and assessments of globalization
from various points of view, serving readers as an authoritative
introduction to what scholars and activists across the political
spectrum think about the central phenomenon of our time.
