Globalisation And The Wealth Of Nations
Paperback Edition: 1
NZ Listener Best Books of 2007
A clear, imaginative and wide-ranging picture of the globalising world, written for a general educated readership. This book is not an argument for or against globalisation but a careful and thorough analysis of the issues involved, drawing on scholarly study and debate but avoiding technical issues and demanding detail. Organised in two parts, it explores the economic theory behind globalisation, then the political and social consequences and concludes with the various options for nations in a globalised world. In each section individual chapters focus on a particular historical experience, typically in a single country; for example, a chapter on cities and industry economies of scale focuses on New York; on on technology transfer focuses on Japan; one on nationalism focuses on Germany.
