Klappentext
"Introducing Globalization Theoriesis as eminently accessible as it is comprehensive. It is brief and synthetic--yet its scope is remarkable, insofar as it covers virtually the entire body of significant scholarship in the field. This 'little' book is destined to become the go-to text for a great many courses."--William Robinson, Distinguished Professor of Sociology, Global Studies, and Latin American Studies, University of California, Santa Barbara
"Accessible, engaging, and persuasive. Steger's scholarship is top-notch. He has great skill in condensing complex ideas into accessible, engaging concepts and narratives. And as anyone who reads academic writing knows, this skill is by no means common."--Lane Crothers, author of Globalization and American Popular Culture
