First sentence: This book critically evaluates the proposition that the forces supposedly driving the process of globalization (information and communication technology, transnational corporations and rapidly accelerating flows of global finance) have important implications for the relationship between: supra national, national and sub national state structures; organizational structures, work and employment; inter and intra firm relationships; and regional governance structures (see Held et al., 1999).
