SPELL 15 - English Studies on Globalisation
The essays in this volume combine analyses of our late-capitalist world with a historical perspective on what is all too frequently regarded as an exclusively modern phenomenon. The assumption underlying this volume is that globalisation manifests itself in three linked forms: the free-market economy, global communications and marketing networks, and global mass culture.
