Winners and Losers in Globalization

Seeking reason in the impassioned globalization debate, de la Dehesa examines who stands to win and who stands to lose from the process of globalization, in a style accessible to readers unfamiliar with economic theory. This book: objectively and dispassionately illuminates the emotionally charged globalization debate; acknowledges that the costs and benefits of globalization will not be distributed evenly; details the economic effects of globalization on individuals, governments, nation-states and business; and, assesses the impact of globalization on both labor markets and financial markets, on global economic growth and on income distribution and real convergence between different national economies.
