<p>‘Empirical studies of mass response to globalization are still lacking. This is especially true for systematic cross-national accounts. The volume edited by Marsh and Inoguchi fills this gap. It maps citizen attitudes in 9 Asian and 9 Western European countries, relying on the high quality ASIA-EUROPE SURVEY. Results show that a majority of citizens in the countries under study feel exposed to and talk about globalization - mostly in positive terms. However, this broadening of the focus of citizen attitudes does not affect the continuing importance of the nation state for attitude formation. Globalization broadens the context of citizens’ experience; it does not replace the older contexts. Students and scholars pursuing the subject will greatly benefit from this volume.’</p><p><em>Hans-Dieter Klingemann is Professor Emeritus at the Social Science Research Centre Berlin (WZB) and Freie Universitaet Berlin, Germany.</em></p>
