"The book explores two major crises of globalization - class polarization and ecological sustainability - and shows how the transnational capitalist class attempts to resolve these crises and evaluates its own success or failure. Sklair's unique approach brings a fresh perspective to what has become a key debate of our time."--Jacket.".
