Social Change and the Global Environment
About this book
Over the last two decades radical transformations have been taking place in the social and economic systems. Through the process of globalization increased opportunities exist for some but disenfranchisement and social dislocations for the great majority are also increasing. Globalization has produced tension between traditional bases of livelihood and emerging export-oriented commercial production of non-traditional items. And finally, globalization has contributed a great deal in deepening the distinction between 'work' and 'leisure', and defining the contours of leisure's activities. Providing a number of empirical and historical studies of leisure from different cultures, this will be of immense book to the students of social sciences and humanities. It is useful for all those students, social scientists and policy-makers who are interested in analyzing social change in the light of this unstoppable process of globalization.
