چکیده
In the 1990s `globalization' has become a particularly fashionable way to analyze changes in the international economy and in world politics. Advances in technology and modern communications are said to have unleashed new contacts and intercourse among peoples, social movements, transnational corporations, and governments.

The chapters of this volume debate the nature and implications of this transformation.
