ISBN: 9781848130234 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. For over a century now, America has dominated global politics and the global imagination. Yet as the dollar declines, inequality increases, rates of consumption are unprecedented and American unilateralism comes under fire, such hegemony is increasingly unsustainable.

Ethnicities and Global Multiculture: Pants for an Octopus
ISBN: 9780742540644 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 254 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Arguing that ethnicity and multiculturalism are essential for understanding globalization, Jan Nederveen Pieterse offers one of the first sustained treatments of the reach of these key forces beyond a limited national context. He shows that multiethnicity preceded the nation-state by millennia; but argues that states, feeling the threat to their national identities, seek to control or suppress it.

This groundbreaking book adopts a kaleidoscopic...
