This work presents an analysis of how globalization changes the boundaries between state and market, public and private, and government and society. Looking in detail at all aspects of the contemporary relationship between the state and the global political economy, this new edition includes the halting of public sector expansion and the reassessment of the welfare state; the global spread and acceptance of market philosophy, and the outcome of such acceptance in the developing and post-Communist world. The book also discusses the vital issues of poverty, population growth and environmental degradation.
