Routledge Counter-Globalization and Socialism in the 21st Century

Explore the complexities of modern political economy with this academic study from Routledge. Using critical globalization theory and David Harvey's theories on social change, this book examines how socialism is being built in Latin America and the Caribbean. By focusing on the Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of Our America - Peoples' Trade Agreement (ALBA-TCP), the text provides a deep look at resistance to global capitalism. This work is essential for researchers and students looking to understand the construction of socialism in the 21st century through a multi-disciplinary lens. Through detailed, theory-based ethnographic case studies, the authors offer empirical analysis of contemporary social movements and political structures. This book serves as a foundation for rethinking global economic systems and the practical application of socialist ideals in the modern era.
