ISBN: 9780231114295 / Angielski / Miękka / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 25-30 dni roboczych. The word "globalization" is used to convey the hope and determination of order-making on a worldwide scale.

With recent technological developments--most notably the Internet--globalization seems to be the fate of the world. But no one seems to be in control. As noted sociologist Zygmunt Bauman shows in this detailed history of globalization, while human affairs now take place on a global scale, we are not able to direct events; we can only watch as boundaries,...
