The final volume of a trilogy, this title is devoted to processes of global social change induced by interaction between networks and identity.

He shows the rise of inequality, polarization and social exclusion throughout the world, focusing on Africa, on urban poverty and on children's plight. Manuel Castells documents the formation of a global criminal economy that deeply affects economies and politics in many countries. He analyzes the political and cultural foundations of the emergence of the Asian Pacific as the most dynamic region in the global economy. And he reflects on the contradictions of European unification, proposing the concept of the network state. In the general conclusion of the trilogy, included in this volume, Castells draws together the threads of his arguments and his findings, presenting a systematic interpretation of the world at this end of the millennium.
