«A Globalizing World?» is the essay on globalization coordinated by David Held, published by Routledge in paperback (196 pages, in English).
The book examines contemporary debates on globalization: what it is, what its driving forces are, and to what extent it encompasses the economy and culture. It does not advocate a single position but presents the main theoretical stances and contrasts them with evidence on communication and cultural industries, global trade and financial flows, and the possible existence of a new world political order against the previous system of states.
Second edition, published in 2004 and part of the Understanding Social Change series.
Aimed at students of politics, economics, sociology and international relations seeking a clear introduction to the phenomenon of globalization.
