Migration, Environment and Globalization

Edición de la obra Global futures

"This book provides a critical assessment of the 'globalization thesis' through sustained analysis of the nexus of processes underlying social and cultural relations. It examines, explores and teases out the many contradictions embedded within different discourses of globalization. Together, the various chapters in this collection offer a wide-ranging critique of those accounts which represent globalization primarily, if not exclusively, as the classic story of European modernity with its attendant narratives of ostensibly unfettered movement of people, unmitigated economic growth and social progress."--BOOK JACKET.
