Keohane, <i>Princeton University</i></b><br /> </p> <p>"Held and McGrew's second edition of <i>Globalization/Anti-Globalization</i> is a thoroughgoing revision of an already outstanding book. Held and McGrew do more than survey the field: they discuss how we might respond to globalization and how we could construct an effective politics to lessen its major negative consequences whilst improving the lives of the vast bulk of the world's population. This is a stunningly impressive book – a must-have reference work on the central debates within the globalization literature."<br /> </p> <p><b>Steve Smith, <i>University of Exeter</i></b></p>
