Processes of globalization have changed the world in many, often
fundamental, ways. Increasingly these processes are being debated
and contested. This Handbook offers a timely, rich and critical
panorama of these multifaceted developments from a geographical
perspective. This Handbook explores the myriad of ways in which
differing cross-border flows - of people, goods, services, capital,
information, pollution and cultures - have (re)shaped concrete
places across the globe and how these places, in turn, shape those
flows. With original contributions from worldwide leading scholars,
the Handbook positions globalization in a broader historical
perspective, presenting a variety of geographical examples so that
readers can better understand these processes. Regional studies and
economic and human geography scholars will find this an invaluable
resource for exploring the key topics of the geographies of
globalization. Lecturers and advanced students will also find the
detailed case studies useful to help explain the fundamental
concepts outlined in the book. Contributors include: P.C. Adams,
