The Globalisation Debate Free
Seminar
From: London School of Economics and Political Science
Globalisation is a concept that has divided economists, sociologists and anti-capitalists alike. In this seminar two major sociologists put forward their distinct versions of globalisation. Anthony Giddens explains globalisation as a phenomenon characterized by changes in the world economy, while Leslie Sklair describes globalisation as a new phase of capitalism that transcends the unit of the nation-state.
