Review
"Globalisation - the global movement, and control, of products, capital, technologies, persons and images - increasingly takes place through the work of organizations, perhaps the most powerful of which are multinational corporations. Based in an ethnographic analysis of cross-cultural social interactions in everyday workplace practices at a subsidiary of an elite, Japanese consumer electronics multinational in France, this book intimately examines, and theorises, contemporary global dynamics."--BOOK JACKET
