Globalization

A Multi-Dimensional System

4th edition

C. Gopinath, Associate Professor Emeritus, Strategy and International Business Department, Suffolk University, Boston, US

Globalization: A Multi-Dimensional System provides a comprehensive understanding of the complex process of globalization and how it impacts nations, organizations and individuals who operate in its environment. C. Gopinath addresses why some nations welcome its benefits whilst others seek protection from it and provides an insightful look into arguments for and against globalization.

‘Now in its fourth edition delivers even more stunning material on how globalization continues to shape our lives and livelihoods.’
– Mauro F. Guillén, author of Rude Awakening: Threats to the Global Liberal Order

‘Gopinath brilliantly connects the present with history through rich, recent examples of the impact of interactions across the world. Insights from the COVID-19 pandemic, in particular, enhance his pragmatic framework, rooted in systems thinking, that analyzes the forces of globalization and its facets. An entertaining and thought-provoking read, Gopinath offers much to both scholars and curious practitioners of international management.’
– Sri Zaheer, University of Minnesota, US

‘How timely! C. Gopinath’s Globalization is destined to be widely read and debated in this great age of globalization (or de-globalization – depending on your point of view).’
– Mike Peng, University of Texas at Dallas, US and author of Global Business and Global Strategy
