Development and Social Change: A Global Perspective (Sociology for a New Century)

Posted on by

In this Third Edition of Development and Social Change A Global Perspective, author Philip McMichael provides a narrative of how development came to be institutionalized as an international project, pursued by individual nation states in the post colonial era This new edition has been updated and revised to incorporate the treatments of fundamentalism, terrorism, the AIDS crisis, and the commercialization of services via the World Trade Organization.Development and Social Change is the first book to present students with a coherent explanation of how globalization took root in the public discourse and how globalization represents a shift away from development as a way to think about non western societies This is an ideal text for undergraduate and graduate students studying globalization, social development, and social change in Sociology, Political Science, Anthropology, and International Studies.
