Hence, this book approaches the complex question of inequality not only from different regional perspectives, covering Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin and Northern America, but also from different disciplinary perspectives, namely cultural anthropology, economics, ethnology, geography, international relations, sociology, and political sciences. The contributions are subdivided into three essential fields of research: Part I analyzes the socio-economic dimension of global exclusion, highlighting in particular the impacts of internationalization and globalization processes on national social structures against the background of theoretical concepts of social inequality. Part II addresses the political dimension of global inequalities. Since the decline of the Soviet Union new regional powers like Brazil, China, India and South Africa have emerged, creating power shifts in international relations that are the primary focus of the second part. Lastly, Part III examines the structural and transnational dimension of inequality patterns, which can be concretized in the rise of globalized national elites and the emergence of multinational networks that transcend the geographical and imaginative borders of nation states. 000724725 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000724725 650_0 $$aDifferentiation (Sociology) 000724725 650_0 $$aGlobalization$$xSocial aspects. 000724725 7001_ $$aLenger, Alexander,$$eeditor. 000724725 7001_ $$aSchumacher, Florian,$$eeditor. 000724725 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tUnderstanding the dynamics of global inequality$$z9783662447659$$w(OCoLC)889183712 000724725 852__ $$bebk 000724725 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-662-44766-6$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000724725 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:724725$$pGLOBAL_SET 000724725 980__ $$aEBOOK 000724725 980__ $$aBIB 000724725 982__ $$aEbook 000724725 983__ $$aOnline 000724725 994__ $$a92$$bISE
