Synopsis:

Students of sociology, politics, history, and economics will appreciate this vibrant introduction to globalization by scholar and former journalist Robert K. Schaeffer. He examines the diverse social consequences of global problems for people in different settings, with detailed case histories of dollar devaluations, debt crises, political partitions, environmental dilemmas, drug trafficking, democratization, free trade agreements, food overproduction, and more. His analytic narrative clarifies how complex developments and arcane institutions (such as the World Bank or G-7) affect everyday lives. Visit our website for sample chapters!

About the Author: \Robert K. Schaeffer, associate professor of sociology at San Jose State University, is former managing editor of In These Times and Greenpeace and the author of Warpaths: The Politics of Partition and Power to the People: Democratization around the World.
