Confronting Globalization cover

Informed by critical theory, the essays in this collection examine the complex dynamics of globalization, the challenges that confront democracy, justice and rights under globalization, and new approaches that seek to contest the excesses of globalization and promote the struggle for global justice. They form a challenging and timely volume that will be essential reading for anyone interested in the normative dimensions of globalization.

'This is a rich set of perspectives on globalization that are well grounded in social and political theory.' - Jan Nederveen Pieterse, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign

'This is an exemplary collection of explorations of what contemporary social theory has to say about globalisation and the consequent need to rethink the possibilities of contemporary political life.' - R.B.J. Walker, Keele University, UK, and University of Victoria, Canada
