Reviews
'Jennings provides a lucid argument supported by archaeological data and a compelling case for a unified approach that eliminates artificial distinctions between past and present. This book would work well in advanced undergraduate and graduate classes on theory and others that deal with comparative analysis more generally.' American Journal of Archaeology, 'Jennings's work is carefully constructed, compactly argued, and quite convincing. As such, it is indispensable reading for anyone interested in studying globalization as [a] timeless human phenomenon. Essential.'

Synopsis
In this book, Justin Jennings argues that globalization is not just a phenomenon limited to modern times. Instead he contends that the globalization of today is just the latest in a series of globalizing movements in human history. Using the Uruk, Mississippian, and Wari civilizations as case studies, Jennings examines how the growth of the world's first great cities radically transformed their respective areas. The cities required unprecedented exchange networks, creating long-distance flows of ideas, people, and goods. These flows created cascades of interregional interaction that eroded local behavioral norms and social structures. New, hybrid cultures emerged within these globalized regions. Although these networks did not span the whole globe, people in these areas developed globalized cultures as they interacted with one another. Jennings explores how understanding globalization as a recurring event can help in the understanding of both the past and the present., In this book, Justin Jennings argues that globalization is not just a modern phenomenon.

- 0***j (180)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaAfter paying for the items I contacted the seller to see if I could arrange special shipping instructions. I was going on vacation for a week and asked the seller if he would be willing to ship the items to me after I returned from vacation. The seller was very nice and professional and told me it wouldn't be a problem. The items arrived at my house about 4 days after I came home from vacation. I really appreciated the extra effort he put forth to accommodate me and my schedule. Great job. Thx.
- y***e (1346)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Último añoCompra verificadaA very fair and diligent seller. Item well packaged, promptly posted, came fast, even with the holidays, and arrived early. When discovered the item was not quite in the condition listed, once notified the seller made a very fair and equitable price adjustment. How refreshing - an honest seller who stands behind their wares. I would gladly patronize this seller again, and cannot recommend them highly enough! :-)A Charlie Brown Religion : Exploring the Spiritual Life and Work of Charles M (#356110166719)
