No-Nonsense Guide to Globalization
No-Nonsense Guide to Globalization
edited by Wayne Ellwood Globalization: it’s a buzzword you can’t escape. But what on earth does it mean? For some it’s the ticket to a democratic world of instant communications and global prosperity. While for others it’s a money-mad juggernaut - spinning wildly out of control - threatening both cultural and biological diversity. The complex entanglement of cultures and economies has been growing since the colonial era and even before. So today commercial culture and the Western consumer model have seeped into every corner of the globe while gaps in wealth - food security and social provision continue to grow. The No Nonsense Guide to Globalization traces the journey towards a ‘borderless’ world. And in the process it shows that the promise of globalization is seductive - powerful - and ultimately hollow. Chapters include a history of globalization - the Bretton Woods Trio - debt and structural adjustment - corporations - global economics - poverty - environment - the market - and ideas for redesigning the global economy.

A People’s History of the United States - Zinn
Howard Zinn Howard Zinn - professor emeritus at Boston University - is one of this country’s most renowned and influential historians. He has helped spark a movement to reexamine what we call history. His classic book A People’s History of the US reverses traditional perspectives and presents history from the point of view of those who have been largely omitted from traditional texts. Zinn brilliantly reshuffles heroes and villains. The New York Times said the book should be required reading. Engaging and witty - Howard Zinn is a joy to listen to. (two audio cassettes - 120 minutes - 1995) Howard Zinn - professor emeritus of history at Boston University - is perhaps this country’s premier radical historian. His masterpiece - A People’s History of the United States - continues to sell in huge numbers. Among the many honors he has received are the Eugene Debs Award and the Upton Sinclair Award. His play Marx in Soho is being widely performed. He is also the author of Failure to Quit and The Future of History.
