- A major new book on globalization by one of the leading and
most highly regarded political scientists in France
- Bayart is very well-known for his work on Africa and in this
book he uses this breadth of knowledge to develop a fresh
interpretation of globalization and its consequences
- Bayart is the first person to use Foucault’s theories of
governmentality and the subject to analyse globalization. This will
make the book unique and of great interest
- Bayart focuses on how globalization has produced new forms of
subjectivity, new lifestyles and new moral subjects, from the
colonisers and colonised of 19th C Africa and India to the spread
of consumerism and advertising today
- Develops a new approach to globalization which challenges both neoliberalism and the anti-globalization movement
