Globalization and Economic Crisis - 2013


a cura di Cosimo Perrotta, Claudia Sunna Full Version (PDF)


eISBN: 978-88-8305-097-8

This book derives from a fortunate series of research seminars held at the University of Salento during 2011. They were devoted to the theme “Globalization and Economic Crisis”. The seminars were organized by the two editors, Cosimo Perrotta and Claudia Sunna, and by the Centre for Economic Studies, for the Degree Course of Political Sciences, of the University of Salento.

Those meetings provided a world survey of general processes of globalization together with specific analysis of regional contexts. The latter approach allows to see the effects of these processes in very different national contexts. The collection of all these written texts will be certainly useful to people interested in this topic.
