In Globalization and Progressive Economic Policy, thirty-six
prominent economists analyze the impact of the emerging global
economy on our national sovereignty and standards of living. Does
globalization cause inequality? Instability? Unemployment?
Environmenal degradation? Or is it an engine of prosperity and
wealth for the vast majority of the world's citizens? The authors
analyze problems, institutions and possible government responses,
and conclude that globalization can be a force for good or ill
depending on the degree of regulation that governments and citizens
can exercise over its trajectory.
