What is In Defense of Globalization : With a New Afterword about?
The noted economist that wrote this book needs hardly an introduction. Perhaps the name awarded to him by left wing sympathizers through out the world ought to summarize it all. He's been called `the world's foremost free trader' for many years now. Undoubtedly one of the strongest candidates to be knocking on the Nobel Prize's door for decades now, Bhagwati summarizes his perspective on globalization, a much talked about phenomenon especially in recent decades. Professor Bhagwati writes persuasively and has facts, common sense and historical evidence to back his points. Coupled with that is his uncanny witticism and sarcasm that reduces his opposing arguments to the stature of rodents. The core of Bhagwati's argument revolves around the debate over the economic implication of globalization, especially in the developing world. Too much has been written about how bad is economic integration, how it has led to ruination in poor countries and how organizations like the WTO and IMF are really satanic in fervor. For Bhagwati, the question whether globalization is good or bad is fruitless. He devotes his time to arguing that not only globalization is good, but has a potential to do far
