Coping with Globalization

by Aseem Prakash (editor), Jeffrey A. Hart (Editor)

Globalization is dramatically reshaping policy landscapes, thereby creating new opportunities and threats for governments and firms. The resultant restructuring of policy spaces requires an emphasis on the need to cope with globalization, since the distribution of its costs and benefits is asymmetrical across countries, sectors, firms and factors. Unlike previous books, Coping with Globalization concentrates firmly on conceptual issues, in order to consider in detail the coping strategies of both firms and governments. Drawing together a panel of international experts, the volume examines pertinent issues such as; * the kind of strategic options which are available * the political, institutional, ideological and economic factors which lie behind specific coping choices * the lessons which can be distilled and applied to other areas.
