We Global: Ongoing Research on Globalization Themes
Synopsis
We Global: Ongoing Research on Globalization Themes collects reflections and results of a set of ongoing research projects, in the field of global studies. Each text represents a distinct approach to key phenomena of our times, all of them entailing deep and intensive interactions between different regions of the planet, according to social sciences’ perspectives. So distinct issues as the fascination and reinterpretation of former civilizations, tourism, cinema, conservative political movements, environmental disasters, labour precariousness or homeless populations, enable us to think about this new world that we are inhabiting and forging each day. Together, as it is systematized in the introduction, this collection supports our efforts to understand core changes taking place today and how global studies may develop creative and critical perspectives to intervene in such a complex and contradictory world.
