Index


“Many books deal with the state of contemporary globalization. Most present globalization—for good or ill—as an inevitably determined condition. As the contributors to Globalization and Beyond demonstrate, however, there are alternatives—and agency is not dead. There are indeed many ways to be ‘globalized.’”

—Miguel Angel Centeno, Princeton University
