One World Mania
Zed Books Ltd (Verlag)
978-1-78360-073-1 (ISBN)
In this much-needed book, Graham Dunkley challenges the oft-repeated notion that free trade and global integration are the best means of development for all nations at all times – an idea that has proved even more misguided in the wake of the global financial crisis. By contrast, Dunkley reveals – through a wide range of statistical analysis and case studies – that at best the evidence is mixed. Looking systematically at issues such as trade-led growth, supply chains and financialization, One World Mania reveals the many problems that over-globalization has caused, often at great human cost.
An indispensible guide for anyone wishing to understand the shortcomings of current global economic policies.
Dr Graham Dunkley has variously been a freelance journalist, worked with NGOs and been an economics lecturer at Victoria University, Melbourne. He is currently an independent writer. He is the author of The Free Trade Adventure and Free Trade: Myth, Reality and Alternatives (both published by Zed Books).
