This book provides a lively discussion of one of the most used and abused concepts in the 21st century globalization. If globalization is a valid construct it manifests itself in lived experience, not abstract theories. Examining the ways in which globalization is contributing to patterns of conflict, Living with Globalization explores a range of case studies, from 9/11 to identity formation. The book reveals the complex ramifications of globalization on society, government and everyday lives.

Globalization and Urban Development (Advances in Spatial Science)
Harry W. Richardson, Chang-Hee C. Bae | ISBN: 3540223622 | PDF | 320 pages | 2005 | 7 MB
Most research on globalization has focused on macroeconomic and economy-wide consequences. This book explores an under-researched area, the impacts of globalization on cities and national urban hierarchies, especially but not solely in developing countries. Most of the globalization-urban research has concentrated on the "global cities" (e.g. New York, London, Paris, Tokyo) that influence what happens in the rest of the world. In contrast, this research looks at the cities at the receiving end of the forces of globalization. The general finding is that large cities, on balance, benefit from globalization, although in some cases at the expense of widening spatial inequities.
