Revitalising Communities in a Globalising World explores the opportunities and constraints that the dynamics of globalisation present for human development in a range of different countries and situations. Arguing that globalisation is currently a system of organising social relations along neoliberal lines, this timely volume examines practical examples of how people respond to significant social changes in their communities. The idea of communities is deconstructed to show that globalisation has collapsed the boundaries of time, space and place in ways that have exacerbated inequalities, at the same time giving rise to unparalleled riches for some. The book encompasses a number of case studies that speak to policymakers, practitioners, educators and students interested in studying globalisation and making the most of its potential for change.

There is a silent globalization being carried out far below the action of multinational firms, international organizations, and state policies. It is the work of societies--communities of determined and creative people. Communities in Globalization richly illustrates the experiences of three Central American communities connected with global markets. The unique perspective of each is developed to show the economic, political-institutional, and social effects of its connection with world trade. Ultimately, this book seeks to identify the resources that allow a community to face globalization while minimizing risks and maximizing opportunities.

Understanding world politics today means acknowledging that the state is no longer the only actor in international relations. The interstate system is increasingly challenged by new transnational forces and institutions: multinational companies, cross-border coalitions of social interest groups, globally oriented media, and a growing number of international agencies. These forces increasingly influence interstate decisions and set the agenda of world politics. Though these phenomena have been discussed in the recent literature of international relations, little attention has been given to their impact on political life within and between communities. This book aims to explore the changing meaning of political community in a world of regional and global social and economic relations. The authors of the essays in this volume, who reflect a variety of academic disciplines, reconsider some of the key terms of political association, such as legitimacy, sovereignty, identity, and citizenship. Their common approach is to generate an innovative account of what democracy means today and how it can be reconceptualized to include subnational as well as transnational levels of political organization. Inspired by Immanuel Kant’s cosmopolitan principles, the authors conclude that favorable conditions exist for a further development of democracy--locally, nationally, regionally, and globally.

"Global Art, Culture, and Media Perspectives" offers a comprehensive exploration of the intricate relationships between art, culture, and media in our interconnected world. We delve into the profound impact of globalization on creative expressions, cultural identities, and media landscapes. Beginning with an examination of the historical and theoretical foundations of globalization, we explore how it has transformed the production, distribution, and consumption of art, culture, and media. Through diverse case studies and theoretical frameworks, we provide insights into the complexities of cultural exchange, hybridization, and resistance in the contemporary global context. We critically engage with contemporary artworks, cultural phenomena, and media artifacts to uncover the diverse manifestations of global cultural production and consumption. From international art biennials to transnational media conglomerates, we highlight how individuals and communities navigate cultural differences today. We address the power dynamics in global cultural flows, including cultural imperialism, hegemony, and appropriation, advocating for a more inclusive and equitable approach to cultural exchange. Examples of cultural activism, grassroots media initiatives, and collaborative artistic projects demonstrate how art, culture, and media foster cross-cultural dialogue and solidarity. Accessible yet intellectually rigorous, this book is essential for anyone interested in creativity, communication, and globalization.

"Policing in Minority Communities" delves into the complex relationship between law enforcement agencies and minority communities, focusing on building trust, fairness, and inclusivity in policing practices. We examine the historical context, current challenges, and innovative strategies to improve police-community relations, particularly in communities marginalized based on race, ethnicity, religion, or socioeconomic status. Drawing on interdisciplinary research, empirical evidence, and real-world case studies, we address critical topics such as racial profiling, bias-based policing, community engagement, and procedural justice. We explore the impact of policing strategies on minority communities and assess the effectiveness of various approaches to enhance trust, legitimacy, and accountability in law enforcement. In addition to analyzing challenges and disparities in policing practices, we highlight promising practices, policy recommendations, and community-driven initiatives aimed at promoting equity, justice, and safety for all residents. We underscore the importance of collaborative partnerships, cultural competence, and accountability mechanisms in fostering positive police-community relations and addressing systemic inequities in the criminal justice system. Written for scholars, practitioners, policymakers, and community leaders, "Policing in Minority Communities" provides valuable insights and actionable strategies for improving police-community relations, advancing social justice, and building stronger, more resilient communities. By examining the intersection of policing, race, and social inequality, we offer a comprehensive framework for addressing the complex challenges and opportunities in contemporary law enforcement practices.

After World War II, communes and cooperative communities became internationally oriented in their membership and networking began to develop. Unlike earlier such enterprises, these groups shared an openness to international relationships. This was evident both in the groups’ social composition, and in the extension of networks beyond their own country. Such globalization opened up the possibility of comparative analysis, which has become a trend in research since the 1950s. The dynamism and speed with which voluntary communities have spread throughout the world is impressive. In the 1950s there were only a few hundred such societies, but by the end of the last century there were thousands. These have taken a variety of forms. There are religious and secular communes, intentional communities, ecological communities, co-housing projects, various types of Christian communities, communities of Eastern religions, and spiritual communities inspired by New Age thought. Yaacov Oved shows that such societies maintain a community based on cooperation and expand their influence through newspapers, television, and the Internet. Their chief characteristic is their openness to the outside world, and their search for a way to move beyond a world of individualism and competitiveness. To accomplish this, they embrace all the tools of the modern world. Oved observes that those who predicted the failure of communes and intentional communities failed to appreciate the extent to which people in today’s society aspire to communal life. This book answers the doubters and does so with a sense of deep historical understanding.
