Over the past decade the Socialist Register has been widely recognised as providing the most distinctive investigations on the left today of the contradictions of globalisation, the internationalisation of the state, progressive competitiveness, the new imperialism and popular global mobilisations against it. Among the well known writers whose essays have built the Register's reputation for this are Robert Cox, Harry Magdoff, Andrew Glyn, Bob Sutcliffe, Immanuel Wallerstein, Stephen Gill, Leo Panitch, Manfred Beinefeld, Gregory Albo, Arthur MacEwan, Frances Fox-Piven, Jim Crotty, Gerald Epstein, Elmar Altvater, Doug Henwood, David Harvey, Hugo Radice, Ursula Huws, Constantine Tsoukalas, Wally Seccombe, David Coates, Joachim Hirsch, Boris Kagarlitsky, Colin Leys, Henry Bernstein, Beverly Silver, Giovanni Arrighi, Gerard Dumenil, Naomi Klein, Birgid Mahnkopf and Brigitte Young. This anthology provides: - The most searching analyses of the political, economic and cultural contradictions of globalisation available - essential reading for students in troubled times - The best set of readings on the role of states - and especially the American state - in making globalisation happen, and on the problems they now confront in trying to keep it going.

Review

"The economic benefits of cross-border connectivity have long stood in sharp contrast with social disparities between rich and poor nations. New political alliances that arise from a united front among rich nations against global terrorism may well compound this gap... Not only does history tell us there is nothing inherently stable about globalisation, but it also highlights globalisation's tendency to sow the seeds of its own demise... The forces of globalisation which once seemed unstoppable are facing new resistance... The playing field may be tilting before our eyes." (Stephen Roach, Chief Economist, Morgan Stanley, in the Financial Times, September 28, 2001).
