Résumé :
|
This book comes out just when needed. It explains the global economy and the globalized world we all now live in. The author uncovers the facts behind the hype. Globalization is not a vehicle without a driver, nor an irresistible and inevitable force of nature, as political leaders and pundits would have us believe. He explains : how the globalization machine really works, who pays the price and what we can do about it.
