“Globalization is a comprehensive and engaging account of the critical issues in this challenging field, bringing together debates from a range of disciplines in a coherent and accessible way. Drawing on examples from around the globe, and written with George Ritzer′s usual clarity and command, this will be a key text for students of globalization across the social sciences.”
–Fran Tonkiss, London School of Economics
