SUMMARY
Summary Intended to clarify debate on globalization and define terms and theoretical foundations that surround the broader concept, this volume explores the writings of key public figures in several disciplines on fundamental characteristics and trends in the interconnectedness of international commerce and politics. The work is divided into thematic chapters covering sociological concepts, transformational thinking, spatial analysis, reformism, and radical promotion and dissent. Authors discussed include Immanuel Wallerstein, Paul Hirst, Joseph Stiglitz, Thomas Friedman and Naomi Klein. Each chapter includes an introduction about the writer, as well as analysis of specific works and listings of publications. Jones is a professor of economic geography at the University of London.
