There is an enormous and growing body of literature on globalisation, too vast to reference here. Summaries of the literature may be found, among other places, in William I. Robinson, Promoting Polyarchy: globalisation, US intervention, and hegemony (Cambridge, Cambridge University Press, 1996); Leslie Sklair, Sociology of the Global System (Baltimore, John Hopkins University Press, 1991); Malcolm Waters, Globalisation (London, Routledge, 1995). For specific points of debate among left scholars and activists, see, eg, diverse contributions in Ralph Miliband and Leo Panitch (eds), Socialist Register 1992, 'New World Order?'), and 1994, 'Between globalism and nationalism' (London, Merlin Press).

Thus my definition of globalisation goes beyond most conceptions that see the process as a quantitative one involving an acceleration in the pace of global interconnections and interdependencies (the objective dimension) along with our awareness of such interconnections (the subjective dimension). See Ronald Robertson, Globalisation: social theory and global culture (Newbury Park, Sage, 1992) for such a quantitative conceptualisation. The qualitative definition advanced here incorporates these objective and subjective dimensions but sees quantitative change as giving way to qualitative change. My argument is that the modern world system has gone through successive waves of global interconnections, each of which has deepened webs of relations and further broken down autonomies, but that the current epoch is a qualitatively new phase. See Immanuel Wallerstein, The Modern World System (New York, Academic Press, 1974) , and world system and dependency literature in general for the notion that, in this quantitative conception, there is nothing new in globalisation as worldwide interconnections, and see Eric Wolf's brilliant study, Europe and the People Without History (Berkeley, University of California Press, 1982), on how such webs of interconnections span back centuries, if not millennia.

There is a very important burgeoning literature on global environment and society, including the journal Capitalism, Socialism, Nature. A useful introduction is John Bellamy Foster, The Vulnerable Planet (New York, Monthly Review, 1994) and theoretical critique of capitalism and the environment is Martin O'Connor (ed.), Is Capitalism Sustainable? Political economy and the politics of ecology (New York, Guilford Press, 1994). The racial dimensions of environmental issues should not be underemphasiszed, including the conscious shift by the transnational elite of the most ecologically-destructive and dangerous phases of global production to the South and/or into Third World communities in the North. See, eg, John Foster Bellamy, 'Let them eat pollution: capitalism and the world environment', Monthly Review (Vol. 44, no. 8, January 1993), pp.10-20; and the entire special issue of Crossroads dedicated to environmental racism (No. 20, April 1992).
