Globalization and Community Series

As we approach the third millennium, the interplay between the local and the global defines many of the most compelling issues of our time. Cities all over the world have been forced to cope with large-scale economic changes and their social effects: immigration, intensified economic and social inequalities, and a divisive politics revolving around issues of gender, race, and ethnicity. Books in this series focus on the economic, social, cultural, and spatial impacts of globalization processes on urban communities.
