圖書名稱:Stranger Than Paradise:Reconceptualizing Globalization
內容簡介
This edited volume addresses the phenomenon called globalization by highlighting its neoliberal origins and critiquing its disguising as human destiny from three levels of contemporary culture: existential, national, and transnational. Exposing the masquerading of neoliberal globalization as the perpetual peace after the end of history, the authors of this volume to different extents all call upon us to reflect on its Capital-driven and Western-centric nature and operations, with a view to facilitate its end and explore the possibility of a new phase of global collaborations through which we can tackle the roots of the natural and man-made catastrophes incurred by neoliberal globalization.
