Globalization and Development: Current Trends

The United Nations Academic Impact (UNAI) is a UN global initiative that seeks to align institutions of higher learning with the United Nations in actively supporting ten universally accepted principles in the areas of human rights, literacy, sustainability and conflict resolution. The University of Calcutta has been a founding partner of the UNAI initiative and Institute of Foreign Policy Studies (IFPS), University of Calcutta is its principal organ in this respect. This anthology of essays came out of a UNAI seminar organized by the IFPS engaging with the various dimensions of the phenomenon of globalization and its impact, both within national boundaries and across these.
