Their diversity indicates the breadth of possible ways in which a global elite and globally mobile professionals might be studied and highlights the substantial opportunities that exist to research such groups from a critical perspective. We hope that this e-book stimulates others to further develop critical research agendas on the topic of the global elite, the transnational capitalist class and globally mobile professionals UR - https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/orpp/detail.action?docID=2058240 ER -
