註釋This comprehensive introduction to the effects of globalization demonstrates to students and show them how the fates of developing nations and developed nations are intertwined. This new edition features an expanded focus on globalization, a student-friendly design, and updated information to reflect recent world events.Drawing on their extensive professional and personal experiences in the developing world, Nassar and Payne offer a lucid, engaging, and comprehensive introduction to the politics and cultures of Africa, Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America. Organized around the theme that globalization is accelerating change in developing countries, each chapter begins with a brief discussion of the impact of globalization on the particular topics covered in that chapter. This approach has the dual advantage of giving students a broader context in which to examine issues in developing countries, while encouraging them to see that industrialized countries are not isolated from developing ones--that the growing interdependence of all nations means that we must understand the issues of the developing world and take an active interest in their fates.
