Quote for the Day:

Is the pernicious and fickle global assembly line in its productive activity the most important force in restructuring life on earth because for an unimaginable portion of people life is now about a job? Is it instead at the other end of the line, consumption (including consumption of media and advertising), where the real action of globalization is taking place, as new global cultures define themselves? Is the hegemonic political order (the nation-state) subservient to economic powers or do these powers wheel drunkenly around each other (one moment sparring, the next arm-in-arm)? And which of these happenings is the process of globalization and which are the conditions, or outcomes, of that process?
