Globalisation and Social Change has a refreshing new perspective on globalisation and the new economy. It provides a coherent theoretical framework to explain how contemporary patterns of globalisation are materialised at different spatial scales and how it affects the lives of people living and working in different places. Emphasis is placed on the socio-economic aspects of change, particularly on the development of information and communication technologies, and changes in working patterns and living arrangements. The global division of labour, the collapse of the traditional industrial regions in richer nations, changing family structures, the feminisation of employment and conceptions of masculinity are all discussed. In the new economy social divisions are also widening and gated communities, migration and social exclusion, are amongst the topics considered. It counters determinism and lack of optimism in much of the contemporary writing on globalisation by arguing that marginal improvements are worthwhile if they have a real and immediate impact on people's lives
