Kamens. aThe book examines the effects of education in creating global citizens who share a world culture. This occurs within an international system that still remains decentralized, composed of independent nation-states as major actors. Prof. Kamens argues that as globalization intensifies, this system of nation-states becomes more saturated and dense with structure. Intensified globalization has produced a world society, thanks to the spread of global capitalism, education, democracy and bureaucracy. The upshot is that world culture travels quickly and produces recipes for the development of an imagined community that has increasing commonalities across societies. The book examines the role of education in diffusing such attitudes and models, as global citizens confront national institutions. 7aSocial SciencexSociologyxGeneral.2bisacsh 7aEducationxPhilosophy & Social Aspects.2bisacsh 7aSociology.2bicssc 7aGlobalization.2bicssc 0aEducation and globalization. 0aNation-state.1 aKamens, David H.1 z9781780527086 0aResearch in the sociology of education ;vv. 18.40uhttp://www.emeraldinsight.com/1479-3539/18
