With a range of case studies from Asia, this book sheds light on
empirical realizations of marginality in a globalized context using
first-hand original research. In the late 2000s, the financial
crisis witnessed the fragility of high levels of market integration
and the vulnerability of globalisation. Since then, the world seems
to have entered an epoch of anxiety featuring populism with varying
degrees of protectionism and nationalism. What is the nature of
this populist mood as a backlash against globalisation? How do
people feel about it and act upon it? Why should specific
intellectual attention be paid to the increasingly marginalised by
the recent macroscopic structural changes? These are the questions
addressed by the contributors of this book, illustrated with
specific cases from mainland China, Hong Kong and India, all of
which have undergone substantial populist or nationalist movements
since 2010. A valuable resource for sociologists looking to
understand the impacts of globalization, especially those with a
particular interest in Asia.
