Opis

Providing practical alternatives to economic globalization, this book is based on original interviews with prominent thinkers and campaigners from across the world. The author interviews some of the world's most corageous and innovative campaigners and progressive thinkers on what globalization really is, what's wrong with it and what alternatives are available. This is a book of ideas and practical proposals for a new world that is more just, humane, stable and conducive to the diversity of human cultures. Particular attention is given to regulating transnational corporations; changing the rules by which the WTO seeks to govern the global economy; switching the economic emphasis from the global to the local; and cancelling foreign debt.
