Social inequality is a worldwide phenomenon. Globalization has exacerbated and alleviated inequality over the past twenty-five years. This volume offers analytical and comparative insights from current case studies of social inequality in more than ten countries within all the major regions of the world. Contributors provide an assessment of the overall social globalization phenomenon in the global world as well as an outlook of transformations of global social inequality in the future. This book will be a timely addition for students and scholars of globalization studies, social inequality, sociology, and cultural and social anthropology.

"...the volume contributes to our understanding of current transformations of social inequalities in different parts of the world. More precisely, the volume has two important strengths: it reveals, first, the regional, national and local differences in inequality patterns and globaliation impacts and, second, it demonstrates the importance of political choices for higher and lower levels of social inequalities."
