In this new book, Rüdiger Safranski considers our current preoccupation with global developments and threats - catastrophic climate changes, jet-setting, high-tech communications and the perfect 'big brother' state, international security and terrorism.
How Much Globalization Can We Bear? offers an engaging and illustrative analysis of the conceptual move from a globalization of endless promise to a globalization which imprisons the individual.
The book will be a compelling contribution to the literature on globalization.
Will be of interest to the general reader and to students of Globalization, Politics and Sociology.
