This collection is the first to explore alternative forms of globalization across the socialist world during the Cold War. Gathering the work of established and upcoming scholars of the Soviet Union, Eastern Europe, and China, Alternative Globalizations addresses the new relationships and interconnections which emerged between a decolonizing world in the post-war period and an increasingly internationalist eastern bloc after the death of Stalin. In many cases, the legacies of these former globalizing impulses from the socialist world still exist today. Divided into four sections, the works gathered examine the economic, political, developmental, and cultural aspects of this exchange. In doing so, the authors break new ground in exploring this understudied history of globalization and provide a multifaceted study of an increasing post-war interconnectedness across a socialist world"-- CN - DK293 SN - 9780253046536 SN - 025304653X SN - 9780253046529 SN - 0253046521 SN - 0253046505 SN - 9780253046505 SN - 0253046513 SN - 9780253046512 SN - 9780253046505 ; KW - Globalization : Former Soviet republics.
