Gernot Kohler quotes from Chase-Dunn, Christopher. (1999). "Globalization: A World-Systems Perspective." _Journal of World-Systems Research_
 5:176-1 http://csf.colorado.edu/wsystems/jwsr/vol5/num2/Chase-Dunn/v5n2a3.htm

>from the current issue of jwsr. quotation from Chase-Dunn: "Today the term
'world economy', 'world market', and 'globalization' are commonplace,
appearing in the sound-bites of politicians, media commentators, and
unemployed workers alike. But few know that the most important source for
these phrases lies with work started by sociologists in the early
Seventies."

these words were actually written by Peter Grimes for an article on world-systems research that we co-wrote for the _Annual Review of Sociology_ 1995.
C. Chase-Dunn and Peter Grimes, "World-Systems Analysis." Annual Review of Sociology 1995. 21:387-417.

Apologies to Peter for not giving him credit where credit is due.

Other sections of the JWSR essay on globalization were co-written with Volker Bornschier for the last chapter of our co-edited book, V. Bornshier and C. Chase-Dunn _The Future of Global Conflict_ (Sage 1999)
Bornschier, Volker and Christopher Chase-Dunn ""Globalization and Change in Technological Style — The Withering Away of the State?" Pp. 285-302 in V. Bornschier and C. Chase-Dunn (eds.) The Future of Global Conflict. London: Sage

Thanks to Peter and Volker for their contributions to the essay on types of globalization.
