Leo McCann has managed to produce an accessible, entertaining, informative text on globalization that is infused with both scholarly heft and a healthy analytical distance, successfully navigating the treacherous divide between laudatory apologia and criticism for its own sake. This is a valuable resource for teachers, academics, and interested publics of all stripes.
(Stephanie L. Mudge)This book makes a beneficial introduction to a field of literature...after deconstructing the myth and hype of globalization McCann proceeds with critically examining the fields in which the concept has been most commonly drawn upon. Culture, economics and politics receive attention, focusing both on the most positive and most negative interpretations of globalization processes in these fields.
For the Organization Studies reader, the most interesting chapter [is] the chapter on global organizations. It is here that McCann’s vast knowledge on the topic of globalization is most strongly manifested.
