Rezension zu „Immanuel Wallerstein and the Problem of the World “
"As the current crisis of financial markets displays both its high level of economic uncertainty and its devastating geopolitical consequencesowith East and West, North and South progressively trading their placesothe prescience of Wallerstein's world-systems analysis appears admirable. But the authors of this book also demonstrate that it potentially affects the basic time-space determinants of every cultural critique. A timely and fruitful contribution." Etienne Balibar, author of We, the People of Europe? "This is a very compelling collection, one that is sure to be of interest to humanists and social scientists and to the growing number of programs in 'global studies.' It turns to Immanuel Wallerstein's 'large-scale vision' as a means of countering the historical damage done by large-scale capitalism and acquiring a sharper understanding of the notion of 'system' and of the contingencies of 'culture' within it" Francoise Lionnet, co-editor of The Creolization of Theory
