New Socialisms: Futures Beyond Globalization: Routledge Studies in Governance and Change in the Global Era

Editat de Robert Albritton, Shannon Bell, Richard Westra
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 8 ian 2004
The major problems facing the world as it gets used to the twenty-first century are global inequality, poverty, war and militarism, oppression, exploitation and ecological sustainability. Far from solving these problems, economic and political neo-liberalism seems to be plunging us deeper into them. Diverse opposition movements have arisen over the years to combat these problems, which the groups generally consider to be the result of "globalization". These opposition movements suffer greatly from being opposed to lots of things without necessarily putting forward realistic alternative suggestions. This impressive new book seeks to analyze and develop serious alternatives to the status quo. With contributions from a wide range of scholars, this important book will provide a uniquely varied outlook. Students and academics involved in international politics and economics as well as general readers with an interest in the anti-globalization movement will find this work incredibly useful.

Descriere

As neo-liberal globalization pushes us further toward global inequality, poverty, war and militarism diverse movements are arising to voice their concerns. These movements have in common a lack of credible alternatives and this book is a contribution to a more positive debate.
