Synopsis

Disturbed supply chains, flight and migration, criticism of "cosmopolitan elites": disputes over globalisation and recently also deglobalisation have economic cycles. In fact, the welfare and woe of the worldwide interweaving has been discussed for more than 150 years. Sometimes euphoric, sometimes pessimistic views gained the upper hand. In recent times, the word "globalism" has become a struggle term. David Cake Book defuses these debates. He captures »globalisms« as an expression of a global consciousness that also includes criticism of globalization. In his book, Kuchenbuch tells for the first time the changeable history of global thought in transatlantic modernism. It reconstructs the social milieus, the cultural constellations and the political mobilization processes from which globalisms emerged. It is about phenomena such as the utopian hopes directed towards a peaceful "One World" at the end of the Second World War, or about the concern in the 1970s about "global interdependencies". Thus, this concise and vividly written book shows how strongly historical experiences continue in current debates.
