Book Abstract
Globalization and Sustainability: Ecological, Social, and Cultural Perspectives, offers a comprehensive exploration of how globalization intersects with ecological integrity, social justice, and cultural dynamics. Drawing from multidisciplinary case studies and theoretical analyses, this volume examines both the benefits?and the unintended consequences?of global interconnectedness.
Bridging theoretical insights and practical case studies, Globalization and Sustainability serves as an essential resource for researchers, students, and practitioners interested in the complex interplay between global processes and local sustainability outcomes. It advocates for multi-level, cross-sector engagement to navigate the challenges of ecological integrity, social justice, and cultural resilience in an interconnected world.
The book situates globalization as an integrated phenomenon shaped by technology-fueled trade, capital flows, and information exchange. It emphasizes the amplified ecological footprints and climate impacts linked to intensified global consumption.
