SOCIOLOGY OF GLOBALISATION: Perspectives from India
There is a tendency to look at such overarching and divergent processes of globalisation from the narrower perspective of capital flow from the North to the South. Though this volume does not aim to be a corrective to such perspective, it is surely different from it. “Most contributions to this volume closely examine the nature of ‘globalisation’ as a very ancient historical phenomenon and how its structures and processes have changed in the present avatar of globalisation. There are convincing arguments on the reverse direction of the global flow which otherwise goes unnoticed by many: e.g., globalisation may originate from below” (quoted from Prof. Yogendra Singh’s foreword). Through contributions from researchers from divergent disciplinary backgrounds, this volume adds hitherto unexplored dimensions to the discourse of globalisation. As it contains articles written in lucid and jargon-free language, the volume makes an understandable reading for teachers, students and all those who are interested in knowing the socio-cultural reality of present-day world.
