Globalization: it's a buzzword you can't escape (American spelling taking over the English-speaking world, for example!).

The complex entanglement of cultures and economies has been growing since the colonial era and even before. Today commercial culture and the Western consumer model have seeped into every corner of the globe while gaps in wealth, food security and social provision continue to grow.

This No-Nonsense Guide traces the jouney towards a 'borderless' world. And in the process it shows that the promise of globalization/globalisation is seductive, powerful - and ultimately hollow. New edition. 2006
