Start peeling back the interconnected layers of the global economy and what will you find? You will sense global capitalism’s far-reaching extent, feel the legacies of colonialism and patriarchy. You will start connecting the dots: government policies, free-market strategies, transnational corporations, structural adjustment plans, and development rhetoric. You will uncover groups of people that have traditionally been overlooked by global capitalism—the invisible will become visible.
