Synopsis

What is Global Studies, and how does it relate to globalization? Responding to this frequently asked question, Manfred B. Steger and Amentahru Wahlrab provide the first comprehensive overview of this emerging field-one of the most popular fields of study in major universities around the world.

This primer speaks to students and instructors interested not only in key theories but also in applied teaching and learning programs designed to educate "global citizens" to meet the concrete challenges of the twenty-first century. The authors discuss the arguments of major thinkers, and the "Four Pillars of Global Studies" globalization, transdisciplinarity, space and time, and critical thinking.
