| Summary |
"Alternatives to Globalisation: an Asia-Pacific Perspective argues that we must develop more progressive and creative responses to globalisation."--BOOK JACKET. "This collection combines accessible overviews of the major theoretical issues with case studies of tangible experiences about particular groups and places."--BOOK JACKET. "Included are articles from academic and community perspectives, exploring the implications of globalisation at local, national and international levels and the possibility of common approaches and action. While the examples focus on Australia and the Asia-Pacific region, most are highly relevant to other parts of the world."--Jacket |
