| Abstract
|
:
|
Calling increasing poverty and inequality in the Global South (sometimes known as the third world) as "among our most urgent problems today," Thomas-Slayter seeks to explore the problems of globalization from the perspective of ordinary non-elite people of the South. After offering a brief history of imperialism and colonialism, she presents chapters looking at issues of globalization and the nation-state; human rights and international refugees; the role of international economic organizations in creating inequality; the links between population, the environment, and development; food security and global politics; and the rise of "anti-globalization" movements.
