Global Migration, Social Change, and Cultural

The essays in this collection work toward a larger goal of separating " globalization" from strictly economic considerations. The authors instead look at globalization as a force that produces profound social and cultural consequences, including migration, struggles for social change, and the transformations of aesthetic practices.
