Sociology of Globalization

Globalization refers to the process of integrating governments, cultures, and financial markets through international trade into a single world market. Although the word ‘globalization’ is widely used, its sociological meaning needs clarification. The aim of this book is to achieve that while returning to the basic premise that sociology is the primary discipline that charts changes within the world society. In order to understand world metamorphosis, there is an urgency to make available accurate and reliable data and match universally recognized definitions. Both of these suggestions bring us to the broader yet fundamental issue of the specific principles required within the social sciences.
