"Globalisation is a journey, not a destination'. This observation by a journalist many years ago captures the essence of the messages in this new book. The contacts and interactions brought about by the processes of globalisation, whether regional or world-wide, have no single or clear outcome. Nor is the phenomenon new; past empires provide many lessons for us at present as we experience this great variety in how the process plays out. This book draws our attention to the complexity of the contemporary version of the phenomenon of globalisation."
"This is a terrific multidisciplinary edited book on globalization-an imperative topic of our time. Probing its impact on individual and collective identities, the international group of scholars take the reader on an illuminating tour of ways that globalization touches and transforms customs and values, consumption and education, immigration and civics, politics and power. It's a tour de force on a topic that impacts us all."
This book explores the impact of globalization on self and identity from multidisciplinary perspectives. Chapters cover a variety of topics including the impact of cultural inertia on intergroup relations, global consumer identity, radicalization, evolving national identities, young people's negotiations of different cultural identities, the emergence of all inclusive global identities, and the impact of global citizenship education on global identity. This collection will be of value to scholars and students from across the social sciences. Iva Katzarska-Miller is a Professor of Psychology at Transylvania University, USA. Her research interests focus on global citizenship and intergroup relations and she is the co-author of The psychology of global citizenship: A review of theory and research. Stephen Reysen is a Professor of Psychology at Texas A&M University-Commerce, USA. His research interests include topics related to personal and social identity and he is the author of books such as Transported to another world: The psychology of anime fans and CAPE: A multidimensional model of fan interest.
