Features: The information-centered technological revolution has changed the ways humans think, produce, consume, trade, and more, leading to the end of an era. In the new millennium, global connections have become increasingly close, while nationalism proves unable to handle the transition to the information age, resulting in growing tension between globalization and the nation-state. This book examines social and political transformations, defines key issues of the new millennium, and constructs an open-ended social theory for the information age.
