At the turn of the twenty-first century, globalization - both the
process and the idea - bestrode the world. Widely acclaimed by
political and economic pundits as the most important phenomenon of
our time, it took the world by storm. Two decades later, it has
come under sustained attack by the re-invigorated forces of the
extreme right and radical left. Does globalization still matter in
our unsettled world? Responding in the affirmative, this study
develops and applies a new framework of an 'engaged theory of
globalization' to analyze some of today's most pressing global
challenges: the rise of national populism, ecological degradation,
rapid urbanization, new sources of insecurity, and the changing
landscape of higher education. Offering a comprehensive appraisal
of globalization in our unsettled times, the authors explain why
and how transplanetary interrelations continue to matter in a world
that is wavering between globalist expansion and nationalist
retrenchment.
