This work explores essential debates on globalization and world-systems analysis. It begins with a review of theoretical insights from world-systems analysis and explains the evolution of its terminology. The book subsequently seeks to answer several important questions: When did globalization begin and what insights into contemporary globalization may be gained from older forms? How does globalization differ in different places, and how can different instances of globalization be compared? Who is affected by globalization, how are they affected, and how do these effects vary, if at all, over time and space?
As world-systems analysis and studies of globalization require interdisciplinary expertise, the contributing authors draw on many fields, including anthropology, economics, geography, philosophy, political science, sociology, and world history. The book's overall goal is to facilitate the dialogue between approaches that, at times, seem to "talk at cross-purposes," and toextend an invitation to scholars from many different areas to explore globalization.
His interests are heavily influenced by his experiences at Navajo Community College, the first Native American tribal college in the U.S., and his observation that one could not understand even local politics in a subdivision of the Navajo Nation without close attention to centuries of history and connects to and effects of interaction with all larger forms of socio-political organization: state, national, and international. He has emphasized the study of those interactions from the local to the global. His attraction to, and interest in, world-systems analysis is found in its guidelines that all social actions must be studied historically and in the sociopolitical contexts.
