Produktinformationen zu „The Commonalities of Global Crises (PDF)“
Bringing together contributions from an international group of social
scientists, this collection examines diverse crises, both historical and
contemporary, which implicate market forces, widening inequalities, social
exclusion, forms of resistance, and ideological polarisation. The
Commonalities of Global Crises offers carefully researched case studies
which stretch across large geographical distances- from Egypt to the US and from
northern, central, eastern and southern Europe to South America- and covers
timely issues including human rights, slavery, care, migration, racism, and the
far right. The volume demonstrates that such different settings and diverse
concerns are characterized by a common tension in which the crises that unfold
around pressures of widening marketization and commodification are met by the
(re)building or re-assertion of various communities, and competing politics of
solidarity and nostalgia.
