Global Studies - A Reader on Issues and Institutions (Paperback)

Global Studies: A Reader on Issues and Institutions provides students with a collection of curated articles that help them better understand the complex, daily functioning of our world. The anthology explores topics and issues that are equally vital at the global and local levels, including migration, technology and communications, public health, and the ever-changing environment. The text is organized into eight chapters. Chapter 1 addresses the movement of people with focus on two particular areas: forced migration and voluntary, temporary movement such as tourism. Additional chapters examine the effects of technology and communication on global engagement, economics and commerce, nationalism and transnationalism, and the role of culture in shaping identity through the idea of multiculturalism. Students learn about different approaches to political authority and governance, public health, and climate change across the world. Each chapter features an introduction to contextualize the readings, suggestions for further reading, and post-reading questions to enrich the student learning experience. Featuring a uniquely contemporary and applied focus, Global Studies is an ideal resource for courses within the discipline.
