Real World Globalization: A Reader in Business, Economics and Politics

by Dollars & Sense Collective

In these times of rapidly changing trends in global trade, investment, labor relations, and economic development, Real World Globalization is an essential guide. Its 60 articles provide jargon-free introductions to trade and financial institutions, work in the global economy, international debt, and global environmental, health, and resource issues. An extensive chapter on economic development critically analyzes neoliberal strategies in countries from Nepal to Brazil, and features a debate on the significance of rich nations' domestic agricultural subsidies. The tenth edition is thoroughly revised, updated, and expanded, with a new chapter on global aspects of the economic crisis.
