Review

Deviant Globalization shows the dark side of global trade, the illicit flows, black markets, and trafficking in drugs and human bodies that are as much a part of the new world (dis)order as multinational corporations and instant financial transfers. Contributors push us towards a more complete moral and political assessment of globalization and the development of better theories to account for power relations, inequalities, and collateral damage. - Craig Calhoun, President, Social Science Research Council

In the shadows of the move to a globalized economy, in places its uncritical partisans would rather not look, an equally new and equally globalized set of phenomena has arisen. In this pathbreaking book, Nils Gilman, Jesse Goldhammer, and Steven Weber have gone far beyond registering the existence of 'deviant globalization.' They have theorized it, and shown that what crops up at the intersection of ethical disparity and regulatory inefficiency is now a permanent feature of global affairs. Observers of the world will benefit from this insight, while teachers and students will gratefully thank the editors for compiling the evidence in one place. - Samuel Moyn, Columbia University, author of The Last Utopia: Human Rights in History

This carefully curated selection of provocative and accessible essays helps us come to grips with the dark underside of the global economy, and sheds new light on what we can and should do about it. - Peter Andreas, Professor of Political Science and International Studies, Watson Institute for International Studies, Brown University

    Deviant Globalization answers many of the questions that arise when you have touched on but do not completely understand illicit markets and the downside of globalization. This book lays out many of the problems that come with a more interconnected world and what happens when entrepreneurs take the grey path to financial success. This book was incredibly easy to read being part analysis and part humanized storytelling.
  • Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2011
    This book provided a compilation of well-written and thought-provoking articles about different underground economies and the people who suffer in the hands of the few who make big profits.
    Writers like Sean Flynn and Johann Hari have developed a truly captivating journalistic style that will keep you riveted.

    Well written collection of well documented examples of negative effects of globalization. Some, like human organ trade are spoken of in hushed tones, but seldom see the light of day. Others like human trafficking seem to be on the front pages of periodicals with sad regularity. The biggest surprise to me was the ugly underbelly of the Dubai economy, and the somewhat tragic lives of imported workers there. (Having visited Dubai in the late 90's, I thought it to be a rather modern city living in relative peace & harmony....Apparently not so!)
    Overall a good read, and a good book to pass along to enlighten others.

    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 7, 2017
    I used this book as my main source when writing a essay on the negative aspects of globalization. It is great for academic work and because of the way it is written, it is also interesting reading for any person who are interested in understanding the deviant side of our world in a greater extent. The book has for me opened a interest for a field which needs a lot more work.
