This is globalization. In the fifth edition of his bestselling Very Short Introduction, Manfred B. Steger considers the major dimensions of globalization: economic, political, cultural, ideological, and ecological. He looks at its causes and effects, and engages with the hotly contested question of whether globalization is, ultimately, a good or a bad thing. From climate change to the Ebola virus, Donald Trump to Twitter, trade wars to China's growing global profile, Steger explores today's unprecedented levels of planetary integration as well as the recent challenges posed by resurgent national populism. 538 Mode of access: World Wide Web. 650 0 Globalization. 650 0 Globalization|xHistory. 650 0 Globalization|xEconomic aspects. 650 0 Globalization|xPolitical aspects. 650 0 Globalization|xSocial aspects. 650 0 Globalization|xMoral and ethical aspects. 700 1 Beresford, Rachael. 710 2 hoopla digital. 800 1 Manfred B., Steger.|tVery Short Introductions.|sSpoken word ; 830 0 Very short introductions ;|v86. 856 40 |uhttps://www.hoopladigital.com/title/ 14285655?utm_source=MARC|zInstantly available on hoopla. 856 42 |zCover image|uhttps://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/ ttm_9781666120691_180.jpeg
