The world looks far different today than it did before the
global financial crisis struck. Reeling from the most brutal
impacts of the recession, governments, economies, and societies
everywhere are retrenching and pushing hard for increased
protectionism. That''s understandable, but it''s also dangerous,
maintains global economy expert Pankaj Ghemawat in World 3.0. Left
unchecked, heightened protectionism could prevent peoples around
the world from achieving the true gains afforded by cross-border
openness.
Ghemawat paints a disturbing picture of what could happen--to
household income, availability of goods and services, and other
quality-of-life metrics--should globalization continue to reverse
direction. He then describes how a wide range of players'' private
businesses, policy makers, citizens, the press'' could help open
flows of ideas, people, and goods across borders, but in ways that
maximize economic benefits for all.
World 3.0 reveals how we''re not nearly as globalized as we think
we are, and how people around the world can secure their collective
prosperity through new approaches to cross-border integration.
Provocative and bold, this new book will surprise and move you, no
matter where you stand on globalization.
