The Globalization of the World Economy series

Edited by Manfred B. Steger, Professor of Political Science, University of Hawai'i-Manoa, US and Professor of Global Studies, Global Cities Research Institute, RMIT University, Australia

Globalization has been the subject of fierce academic and public debates over the past two decades, but the focus has tended to revolve around ‘objective’ aspects linked to economics and technology. This authoritative two-volume set, edited by a leading academic in the field, brings together important papers which cover the equally crucial ‘subjective’ dimensions with particular emphasis on the production and dispersion of cultural meanings, identities and practices. Along with an original introduction, this research collection will be of use to anyone with an interest in the subject of globalization and culture.
