The word 'globalization' has come to represent certain new structures of economic practices, organizational principles and ideological positions. In the present globalized world, there are increased levels of deprivation just as there are increased levels of affluence in a variety of locations around the world. This book addresses the emerging challenges of the globalization. Tracing its historical background, it attempts to critically analyse the why, what and whom the globalization is intended for.
