About the Book

This book attempts to bring together, both theoretically and empirically, a variety of contributions on the ideology of neoliberal globalization as a new phase of global capitalism-cum-imperialism. Trumpeted with the rhetoric of TINA (There Is No Alternative) the neo-liberal orthodoxy has become the dominant ideology today in restructuring the periphery of global capitalism. This book addresses the diverse economic structures of the global periphery and tries to deduce lessons on the current global crisis conjuncture of global capital in governing the world.
