First sentence: Through a focus on the American establishment and its overseas allies in the context of class struggles, wars, and revolutionary upheavals, globalization is analyzed in this chapter as a part of the rise, demise, and reconstruction of the capitalist world market in the long twentieth century (Arrighi 1994).
