Titus Alexander is a community education worker who has taught current affairs and politics to adults for many years.
'Its aim, in an age of popular disillusionment with conventional
electoral politics, of reinvigorating grassroots social movements
is laudable.' The Times Higher Education Supplement 'A weighty and
authoritative analysis of global apartheid, full of fresh thought
and dazzling detail... As a source of ideas, facts, references, the
most improbable of quotations, and signposts to further reading, it
is an invaluable reference work for educators; as a source of
inspiration, it is an epic antidote against little Englanders or
indeed, little Europeanists.' WEA Journal Report Book
'More than other books which have covered the same ground, this one
offers the reader a simple and powerful metaphor to understand the
impact of complicated economic processes - global apartheid.'
Christian Aid News
'In spite of the serious message to Western politicians this is a
hopeful and encouraging book which points the way forward for both
rich and poorer nations ... Unravelling Global Apartheid will
inspire both locally and globally.' Perspectives
'Alexander is to be congratulated on the precision and persistence
with which he develops his core argument and on the
inter-disciplinary breadth of his vision ... the book will have a
useful role as a kind of polemical textbook to read alongside
alternatives.' Democratization
'Those with a clear understanding of how the world is changing are
most likely to be able to shape the future. Globalisation offers
greater prosperity but also the threat of growing inequality.
Acting only at national level we will not be able to meet these
challenges. But acting together there is much we can achieve. We
should take the arguments and analysis in this book very
seriously.' Rt Hon Clare Short MP, Secretary of State for
International Development
