An invaluable guide to understanding the relationship between globalization, transnationalization and the development of social inequality. Global Inequality addresses challenges in the transition to a multi-centered world. The contributions by international experts from different continents and different disciplines bring together current research on global inequality and social classes, covering a wide variety of thematic and spatial foci. This also includes a comparison of analyses of inequality in a global context. By bringing together analyses of inequalities in income, wealth, education, political influence, labor conditions, and socio-ecological inequalities, among others, the volume provides deeper insights into the ways in which global social inequalities are changing yet being reproduced in many ways in the twenty-first century. It calls for a discussion on the global dimensions of unequal power relations.
