Other Available Formats
Overview
Since the explosion of the buzzword "globalization" in academic and public discourse more than thirty years ago, theoretical explorations of worldwide interconnectivities and mobilities have proliferated across major academic disciplines. Introducing Globalization Theories is a short yet comprehensive primer to major globalization theories from the 1990s to the present. This accessible introduction explains how globalization frameworks have been assembled by influential thinkers who employ different modes of inquiry. With short summaries, tables, figures, and a supplemental reading guide, students are equipped with tools to assess the strengths and weaknesses of each theory. Intersecting with relevant contemporary themes, the book highlights and features postcolonial and Indigenous globalization theories that challenge Western-centric standpoints and point to a more equitable world.
