Tony Schirato & Jenn Webb 
Understanding Globalization [EPUB ebook] 

Stöd

Globalization is a highly debated term, and struggles over its meaning are played out in a variety of ways, from academe and the media to the streets of Seattle, Melbourne and Genoa.


This book provides a welcome introduction to the discourses, practices and technologies that have been grouped together under that term. It outlines the historical contexts of globalization, and addresses the politics of naming that are so central to the reproduction of the narratives and patterns of globalization.


The authors examine specific sites that are being transformed by globalization such as capitalism, state governments, the media and cultural identity, and explore the notion of a post-globalization world.


This will be a valuable book to undergraduate and MA students on communication, media, cultural studies, sociology, politics and development courses.
