Wiley, 15 août 2000 - 448 pages
The final volume in Manuel Castells' trilogy is devoted to processes of global social change induced by interaction between networks and identity.

Castells studies empirically the collapse of the Soviet Union, tracing it back to the incapacity of industrial statism to manage the transition to the Information Age. He shows the rise of inequality, polarization, and social exclusion throughout the world, focusing on Africa, urban poverty, and the plight of children. He documents the formation of a global criminal economy that deeply affects economies and politics in many countries. He analyzes the political and cultural foundations of the emergence of the Asian Pacific as a critically important region in the global economy. And he reflects on the contradictions of European unification, proposing the concept of the network state. The new edition of" End of Millennium" includes a revised chapter on Pacific Asia taking into account recent trends, while the book has also been updated to account for developments in the European Union.

In the general conclusion of the trilogy, included in this volume, Castells draws together the threads of his arguments and his findings, presenting a systematic interpretation of our world.

Review: End of Millennium: The Information Age: Economy, Society and Culture , Volume III (The Rise of Network Society #3)

Avis d'utilisateur  - Irwan - Goodreads

The last of the trilogy. This book along with the other two comprehensively discuss the changes that happens in the information age. It opens my eyes on how actually the technology in which I was trained affect the social fabric of our daily life. Would love to read it again someday. Consulter l'avis complet
