520    "This book has examined some of the pressing issues and 
       challenges related to modernity, modernization, and 
       globalization of the 21st century. The authors of this 
       book are a distinguished group of social scientists from 
       America's academia, many of whom are by-cultural and 
       educationally trained both in the East and the West. The 
       book has used historical and comparative perspectives and 
       many extant sources of primary data. The authors have 
       addressed many macro-issues such as modernity and church-
       state separation, America's historical role in spreading 
       global modernity, the global expansion of democracy, the 
       rise of a global middle class, the advent of global 
       digital connectivity, and the recent rise of right-wing 
       political parties in the global political landscape. The 
       authors also examined many micro-issues such as 
       modernization and women empowerment in India and Nigeria, 
       the growth of a unique political culture of Islam and 
       modernism in Sierra Leone, the problem of transition to 
       emancipative values in the post-socialist countries of 
       Central and Easter Europe, rise in religious hostilities 
       in South Asia, need for modernization in dealing with 
       minority females in America's criminal justice system, and
       modernity and the evolution of the rights of the disabled 
       in America. The empirical and country studies largely 
       support the theme of the book that modernity is a cultural
       and civilizational model. The global modernity has been 
       progressing across world societies for more than two 
       hundred years. It has been particularly remarkably 
       advancing since the second half of the twentieth century. 
       The world capitalist economy has become more global, world
       democracy has expanded, the global middle class has vastly
       grown, women's economic and political empowerments have 
       widened, and global digital connectivity has increased. 
       These social and economic transformations are far more 
       fundamental for the future progress of democracy and 
       global modernity. The further spread of global modernity 
       is inevitable and irreversible. The present right-wing 
       ideologies of nativism, localism, nationalism, 
       fundamentalism, and divisiveness in the global political 
       trajectory are transient and temporal peculiarities"--
