Globalization and Social Theory cover

An exciting addition to the "Theorizing Society" series, this book seeks to explain to the reader the manifold meanings, and approaches to, "globalization" and related matters that have been developed by social theorists across the ages and from many different perspectives. The text will cross disciplinary boundaries including material from sociology, anthropology, political science, economics, humanistic and literary studies. The text is focused on four key areas, economy, polity, culture and society. The authors will put into question the underlying and conventional assumptions of modern sociological theory. The text will be an accessible introduction to the field, from well established and well known authors in the area.
