New Perspectives on Globalization and Antiglobalization

'At a time when neoliberal globalization is increasingly rejected and global capital is facing popular resistance around the world, Henry Veltmeyer's excellent collection of essays by some of the best known names in the field, exposes the perils of global capitalism and paves the way for its transformation. A much needed corrective to apologetic rationalizations of the globalization process, this book succeeds in providing a powerful critique of contemporary neoliberal globalization.' Berch Berberoglu, University of Nevada, Reno, USA 'With strong contributions from world renowned social scientists, this timely collection invites us to reconceptualize globalization and antiglobalization as phenomena fraught with contradiction. Combining incisive theoretical overviews and empirically rich case studies, New Perspectives on Globalization and Antiglobalization will be of interest to students and scholars alike.' William K. Carroll, University of Victoria, Canada This book is a real find. New Perspectives on Globalization and Anti-Globalization brings together an outstanding group of critical scholars to address some of the most urgent questions of our age. Combining rigorous analysis, careful case studies and an overriding commitment to social justice, this book is essential reading for those who wish to understand the perils of neoliberal globalization - and for those who seek to build alternatives to it.'
