After a trio of broad theoretical chapters serve as an introduction, Inda (Chicana/o studies, U. of California at Santa Barbara) organizes the remaining 15 contributions into sections focusing in turn on the circulation of capital, people, commodities, media, and ideologies and discourses. Examples of specific topics from each of these sections include Mayan youth and rural industrialization in Guatemala, "cyberpublics" and diaspora politics among transnational Chinese, McDonald's and consumerism in Moscow (Russia), Indian cinema and global media, and theorization of the local/global interface in analysis of the female inheritance movement in Hong Kong.
