Cosmopolitan Spaces

Europe, Globalization, Theory

Beschreibung

The book advances a provocative critical reading of both globalization theory and contemporary Europe. Concerned with questions of space, borders and governance, Cosmpolitan Spaces challeges conventional notions of cosmopolitanism and its relevance to conceptualizations of space, and offers a fresh take on the meaning and implications of globalization.
