Prospects and Ambiguities of Globalization Critical Assessments from a Christian Point of View By James Skillen Lexington Books,2009 150 pages 1.04 MB
Covering topics ranging from the New Silk Road to changes in school governance around the world, the essays in this volume offer a critical, historically-informed assessment of the diverse dynamics that are undermining or nullifying current paradigms of thought and action in globalization studies. Assumptions and institutions that we have taken for granted for fifty years are proving inadequate for the world now emerging. Moreover, mono-casual explanations of rapid global change do not work. Religious as well as economic dynamics, cultural as well as political forces, environmental as well as military constraints, are frequently working at cross-purposes in shaping a globe we cannot yet fathom.
