Description - Geographies of Globalization by Andrew Herod
Exploring a wide range of issues, from the integration of the world economy to how contemporary processes are shaping and shaped by nation-states and how workers are organizing transnationally in response to transformations in the planet’s economic geography, Geographies of Globalization is a critical examination of what has become the leitmotif of our contemporary world. - Challenges neoliberal assumptions on the nature of globalization
- Provides a conceptual overview of how globalization is a spatial process and of its relation to capitalism
- Explores whether we are in fact living in a more ‘globalized’ world or only in a more ‘internationalized’ one
- Considers arguments concerning whether ‘globalization’ is a new phenomenon or simply the latest manifestation of processes many hundreds of years in the making
- Focuses on how nation-states have shaped, and been shaped by, contemporary processes of ‘globalization’, how ‘globalization’ has been imagined discursively, and how workers are responding to such processes
- Explores how workers are creating new organizing strategies in response to ‘globalization’
