Globalization and Everyday Life provides an accessible account of
globalization by developing two themes in particular. First,
globalization is an outcome of structural and cultural processes
that manifest in different ways in economy, politics, culture and
organizations. So the globalized world is increasingly
heterogeneous, unequal and conflictual rather than integrated and
ordered. Secondly, globalization is sustained and created by the
everyday actions of people and institutions. Both of these have
far-reaching consequences for everyday life and are fully explored
in this volume.
Larry Ray skilfully guides students through the various aspects
of the globalization debate and illustrates key arguments with
reference to specific topics including nation, state and
cosmopolitanism, virtual societies, transnationals and development.
This innovative book provides this information in a clear and
concise manner suitable for the undergraduate student studying
sociology, social geography, globalization and development
studies.
