GLOBALIZATION, MARGINALIZATION AND CONFLICT. A REVIEW

Abstract

Although the book chapters focus on different, specific topics, covering various areas, including Europe, South Africa, India, Middle East, South America, etc., the volume succeeds to construct a unitary analysis, which has as main goal to draw on the negative sides of globalization processes. How and why globalization generates marginalization and how, through marginalization, various forms of conflicts are triggered constitute research questions, formulated in a form or another by authors in all book chapters. Specific responses are given by authors, considering the peculiarities of the tackled topics, of the focused on groups, of cultural/historical embedded accumulations, of spaces and places.
