Abstract

"Sociologist Saskia Sassen focuses on the importance of place, scale, and the meaning of the national to the study of globalization. By emphasizing the interplay between the global and the local, A Sociology of Globalization introduces readers to new and increasingly common forms and conditions such as global cities, transnational communities, and commodity chains. Sassen's expanded approach to globalization offers new interpretive and analytic tools to understand the complex ideas of global interdependence."--BOOK JACKET.

Abstract

"Globalization: The Making of World Society shows how globalization affects everyday experience, creates new institutions, and presents new challenges." "With many examples, Lechner describes how the process unfolds in a wide range of fields, from sports and media to law and religion. While sketching the outlines of a world society in the making, the book also demonstrates that globalization is inherently diverse and contentious. In this concise analysis of a complex subject, Lechner presents some of the best work in the social sciences in clear and readable fashion." "Globalization: The Making of World Society will serve as a stimulating, state-of-the-art text for any student of globalization, beginner or advanced."--BOOK JACKET.

Abstract

The new edition of this accessible and wide-ranging book demonstrates the distinctive insights that sociology has to bring to the study of globalization. Taking in the cultural, political and economic dimensions of globalization, the book provides a thorough introduction to key debates and critically evaluates the causes and consequences of a globalizing world. Bringing the discussion right up to date, the new edition includes an increased emphasis on the rise of China, the aftermath of the financial crisis and austerity, the benefits of migration and open borders, and the changing structure of global inequality. Data and literature have been updated throughout the book, with new sections on global cities, the environment and international protests, and expanded discussion of gender. Martell argues that globalization offers many opportunities for greater interaction and participation in societies throughout the world, for instance through the media and migration, but also has dark sides such as conflict, global poverty, climate change and economic insecurity. This book will continue to be an ideal companion to students across the social sciences taking courses that cover globalization, and the sociology of globalization in particular
