This anthology of eighteen papers seeks to debunk the enigma associated with the process of globalization and understand comprehensively the inter-linkages between globalization, environment and society by taking into consideration the strands of emerging discourse on ecological, social and economic dimensions.

Going deep into the dilemma of globalization, it discusses at length the socio-economic dimensions of globalization in India, the climate change debate, India’s climate policy, the growing concerns in global era, development-induced displacement, industrial policy reforms, new capitalism and violence, persistence of poverty, and participator approach in management of natural resources. It also examines the impact of globalization on women.
