Hyperconflict: Globalization and Insecurity
ISBN: 9780804763752 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This book addresses two questions that are crucial to the human condition in the twenty-first century: does globalization promote security or fuel insecurity? And what are the implications for world order? Coming to grips with these matters requires building a bridge between the geoeconomics and geopolitics of globalization, one that extends to the geostrategic realm. Yet few analysts have sought to span this gulf. Filling the void, Mittelman identifies systemic drivers of global security and insecurity and demonstrates how the intense interaction between them heightens insecurity at a world...

ISBN: 9780691165189 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Why the paradigm of the world-class university is an implausible dream for most institutions of higher education Universities have become major actors on the global stage. Yet, as they strive to be "world-class," institutions of higher education are shifting away from their core missions of cultivating democratic citizenship, fostering critical thinking, and safeguarding academic freedom. In the contest to raise their national and global profiles, universities are embracing a new form of utilitarianism, one that favors market power over academic values. In this book, James...

Stress-Induced Mutagenesis
ISBN: 9781461462798 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 275 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. The discovery of stress-induced mutagenesis has changed ideas about mutation and evolution, and revealed mutagenic programs that differ from standard spontaneous mutagenesis in rapidly proliferating cells. The stress-induced mutations occur during growth-limiting stress, and can include adaptive mutations that allow growth in the otherwise growth-limiting environment. The stress responses increase mutagenesis specifically when cells are maladapted to their environments, i.e. are stressed, potentially accelerating evolution then. The mutation mechanism also includes temporary suspension of...

The Globalization Syndrome: Transformation and Resistance
ISBN: 9780691009889 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Here James Mittelman explains the systemic dynamics and myriad consequences of globalization, focusing on the interplay between globalizing market forces, in some instances guided by the state, and the needs of society. Mittelman finds that globalization is hardly a unified phenomenon but rather a syndrome of processes and activities: a set of ideas and a policy framework. More specifically, globalization is propelled by a changing division of labor and power, manifested in a new regionalism, and challenged by fledgling resistance movements. The author argues that a more complete... Here James Mittelman explains the systemic dynamics and myriad consequences of globalization, focusing on the interplay between globalizing market ... |

Whither Globalization?: The Vortex of Knowledge and Ideology
ISBN: 9780415341523 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 152 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Globalization is usually said to be about markets, power, and culture. This innovative book goes further, arguing that globalization may also be understood as a way of knowing and representing the world. Mittelman debunks several prevalent myths about globalization and 'anti-globalization', presenting alternatives to this force and indicating the prospects for a new common sense about future world order. Drawing on considerable original research, this book shows how globalization itself and globalization studies have changed since 9/11. Compact and accessible, Whither Globalization?...

Out from Underdevelopment Revisited: Changing Global Structures and the Remaking of the Third World
ISBN: 9780312164676 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 316 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 20 dni roboczych. Development may be best understood in terms of the interplay among capital accumulation, the state, and class. Subject to globalizing structures, classes, in turn, are examined in light of their interactions with culture, especially gender and religion as well as ecology. Case-studies - Brazil, the Asian newly industrializing countries, China, and Mozambique - reveal three possibilities for overcoming underdevelopment: joining, leaving, or weaving through global capitalism. The conclusions do not fail to present specific principles upon which policies can be based.
