Arie M. Kacowicz explores the complex relationships between globalization and the distribution of wealth as a political problem in international relations, analyzing them through the prism of poverty and inequality. He develops a political framework (an 'intermestic model') which captures the interaction between the international and the domestic domains and explains those effects with a particular emphasis upon the state and its relations with society. He also specifies the different hypotheses about the possible links between globalization and the distribution of wealth and tests them in the context of Latin America during the years 1982-2008, with a particular focus on Argentina and the deep crisis it experienced in 2001-2. 517 3 $aGlobalization & the Distribution of Wealth 606 $aIncome distribution$zLatin America 606 $aGlobalization$zLatin America 615 0$aIncome distribution 615 0$aGlobalization 676 $a339.2098/09045 686 $aPOL011000$2bisacsh 700 $aKacowicz$b Arie Marcelo$0127157 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910822898203321 996 $aGlobalization and the distribution of wealth$93963573 997 $aUNINA
