He is perhaps the leading anthropologist writing on the state and globalization. Thinking beyond the State, a distillation of his work to date, is a superb introduction to his contributions to both anthropology and political philosophy. Abélès observes that while interdependence and interconnection have become characteristic features of our globalized era, there is no indication that a concomitant evolution in thinking about political systems has occurred. The state remains the shield-for both the Right and the Left-against the turbulent effects of globalization. According to Abélès, we live in a geopolitical universe that, in many respects, reproduces alienating logics. His book, therefore, is a primer on how to see beyond the state. It is also a testament to anthropology's centrality and importance in any analysis of the global human predicament. Thinking beyond the State will find wide application in anthropology, political science and philosophy courses dealing with the state and globalization. 606 $aNation-state and globalization 606 $aGlobalization$xSocial aspects 606 $aInternational economic integration$xPolitical aspects 606 $aInternational economic relations$xPolitical aspects 606 $aPolitical science$xPhilosophy 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aNation-state and globalization. 615 0$aGlobalization$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aInternational economic integration$xPolitical aspects. 615 0$aInternational economic relations$xPolitical aspects. 615 0$aPolitical science$xPhilosophy. 676 $a327.101 700 $aAbe?le?s$b Marc$0382298 702 $aRousseau$b Phillip$f1975- 702 $aHaince$b Marie-Claude$f1978- 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910467932403321 996 $aThinking beyond the state$92459860 997 $aUNINA
