Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) In this pathbreaking book, one of the world's leading analysts of globalization and global governance confronts the failures of international politics in the aftermath of 9/11 and the war against Iraq.

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) According to current deabtes, 'individualization' has frequently been proposed as the conceptual counterpart to 'globalization'. It has often seemed that nothing would be left once these processes have fully unfolded, other than individual human atoms dispersed on a globe without any political, economic or cultural structures.
Regardless of whether this description is based on any good and valid observation, nobody drew the conclusion that suddenly emerges as evident after reading Rudiger Safranski's lucid and timely exploration of the issue: globalization, if it occurs,...

Globalization, Poverty and Inequality: Between a Rock and a Hard Place
ISBN: 9780745635545 / Angielski / Miękka / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) Globalization is characterised by persistent poverty and growing inequality. Conventional wisdom has it that this global poverty is residual - as globalization deepens, the poor will be lifted out of destitution. The policies of the World Bank, the IMF and the WTO echo this belief and push developing countries ever deeper into the global economy.
Globalization, Poverty and Inequality provides an alternative viewpoint. It argues that for many - particularly for those living in Latin America, Asia and Central Europe - poverty and globalization are relational. It is the very...

The Great Disruption
ISBN: 9780745636634 / Angielski / Twarda / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) The dynamic that currently underlies global social change is the product of forces that are not of a single type or origin. As a consequence, that change is experienced as a process that uproots individuals but gives no guidance for the future, that destroys but does not reconstruct, that prescribes action but provides no reassurance. The radical uncertainty it engenders is an understandable source of anxiety: the rich countries are increasingly worried about competition from low-wage economies, while the wretched of the earth suspect their precarious existences will come under even greater...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) Taking the plane or sending an e-mail: globalization has become part of the fabric of our daily lives. And yet it is often seen as an impersonal force that is threatening to destroy identities and undermine nation-states. In this major new book, Jean-Franois Bayart offers a radically new account of globalization which challenges the way it is interpreted both by neo-liberals and by the anti-globalization movement.
Bayart argues that globalization is something that we ourselves have created, and the nation-state is actually a product, and not of a victim, of this process....
