If you are intrigued by a possible common factor in the rise of Donald Trump, Nigel Farage and Viktor Orbán, and more broadly, populism and economic nationalism in many parts of the developed economies, this is a must-read. Ashbee succinctly yet eloquently captures the dynamic interaction between economic globalization and socio-political movements, and uncovers the resulting role of government in coping with the challenges., In this excellent book, Ashbee draws out the core social, political and economic pressures that first ushered in globalization, and then a faltering process of deglobalization (or 'slowbalization'). The combination of overall analytical narrative and insightful illustrative examples throughout this period of policy discussions does a truly excellent job of bringing to the reader's attention the way in which the debate over global economic governance, and the nature of the global political economy itself, have both shifted over the past thirty years., Contrary to much conventional wisdom, globalization is not an inevitable force sweeping across the world. Edward Ashbee shows with clarity and insight that it is a variegated process that ebbs and flows in response to political struggles, economic competition, technological innovation, and structural contingencies. Indeed, there is nothing inevitable about it at all.

Synopsis
Edward Ashbee examines the globalizing processes of the past thirty years and considers the extent to which there has been "deglobalization" or "slowbalization" and the reasons for these apparent shifts. The book looks at the original promise held out by globalizing trends which became fully evident at the same time as the dot.com economy became part of everyday life. The book then charts the backlash against "globalism" and the ways in which it became pronounced across much of Europe, North America and Asia. And it asks how far has that backlash, together with the 2008 financial crisis, the Covid-19 pandemic, and the rise of "techno-nationalism" led to a stalling or even reversal in globalizing processes. The analysis disaggregates the different trends that collectively constitute "globalization" and surveys competing perspectives on globalization and reviews the arguments of those who argue that the concept is either myth or hyperbole. The book reveals how globalization is being reconfigured in ways that weaken its former associations with neoliberalism and Americanization thereby laying the basis for a new economic and social settlement., Edward Ashbee examines the globalizing processes of the past thirty years and considers the extent to which there has been deglobalization or "slowbalization" and the reasons for these apparent shifts.

This is an invaluable overview of one of the most important phenomena of our age.

    This unique book was priced quite reasonable. The book was advertised as new and arrived in mint condition and in the highest authentic hard cover quality. It Packaging was very good when mailed. I also find communicating with the seller during the shipping process, which was a bit of a wait for a very hard to find book, was very prompt and inspired trust. I highly recommend this seller and will return for future purchases.
