However, it has also changed the context for, and the organizational forms of, politics, unleashing forces in support of, and in opposition to, the globalization dynamic. Investigating the dynamics of change and development in two regions of the world economy, Latin America and Asia, this book evaluates these forces, their political dynamics, and the responses of governments and citizens. The focus of these explorations, and the regional case studies they provide, is on the role of the nation-state, international organizations and social movements. ER -
