Globalization is not a new phenomenon in the international system. However, the various phases of globalization have had divergent scope, actors, dimensions and dynamics. Against this background, this book focuses on the 'new globalization' a phase that emerged when the Cold War ended.



In this vein, this book identifies some of the frontier issues in Africa - debt, human rights, development, state sovereignty, the environment, democratization, the HIV/AIDS pandemic and communications - that are being impacted by the dynamics of this new globalization.
