Bound, Living in the Globalized World

* Individual vignettes and case studies offer a refreshing twist on the globalization discussion
* Written in an accessible style engrossing to both undergraduates and the socially conscious general reader

Bound promises a stimulating and straightforward introduction to one of the most significant issues of our time: globalization. Sernau examines the background to current global interconnectedness, asking what trends and practices have ushered in this new global century. This book challenges readers to see their place in this changing planet, and to consider the necessary actions to build a more equitable, rewarding, and sustainable global society.
