HUB 200 - Perspectives on Globalization

Institution:

University of Hartford

Subject:

Description:

Globalization is difficult to understand precisely because its dynamic form seems to outpace any single perspective from which to grasp it. This course takes up the challenge by critically assessing the vast array of global theories. It embraces the plurality of theories by looking at globalization from economic, environmental, biological, and sociological accounts. It addresses the often virulent impasse between those who celebrate globalization as a manifest destiny of economic freedom and those who see it as the final phase of imperialism, colonialism, and international capitalism.
