Globalization has become one of the defining buzzwords of our time--a term that describes a
variety of complex economic, political, cultural, ideological, and environmental forces that are
rapidly altering our experience of the world. In clear, accessible language, Manfred B. Steger goes
beyond a narrow economic focus to cover all the major causes and consequences of globalization
as well as the hotly contested question of whether globalization is, ultimately, a good or a bad
thing. This new edition has been fully updated, incorporating all the major global developments in
the past four years, including the 2008-2010 global financial crisis, the 2011 Japanese earthquake,
tsunami, and nuclear disaster, the 2011 killing of Osama bin Laden, the on-going revolutions in the
Middle East, and the rise of social networking such as Facebook and Twitter. The book also
examines political movements both for and against globalization, from WTO protests to the rise in
global jihadism; considers such concepts as "Americanization" and "McDonaldization"; and explores
the role of the media and communication technologies in the process of cultural globalization.
Finally, Steger explains in accessible language the connection between economic globalization and
multinational corporations, World Bank, International Monetary Fund, and the World Trade
Organization. About the Series: Oxford's Very Short Introductions series offers concise and
original introductions to a wide range of subjects--from Islam to Sociology, Politics to Classics,
Literary Theory to History, and Archaeology to the Bible. Not simply a textbook of definitions, each
volume in this series provides trenchant and provocative--yet always balanced and
complete--discussions of the central issues in a given discipline or field. Every Very Short
Introduction gives a readable evolution of the subject in question, demonstrating how the subject
has developed and how it has influenced society. Eventually, the series will encompass every major
academic discipline, offering all students an accessible and abundant reference library. Whatever
the area of study that one deems important or appealing, whatever the topic that fascinates the
general reader, the Very Short Introductions series has a handy and affordable guide that will likely
prove indispensable.
