Description
In the past decade we reaped the benefits of unprecedented globalisation, without giving it much thought. This changed catastrophically when the massive flow of money around the world ceased. For the first time, globalisation became a phenomenon whose fortunes all of us have to understand. How are our own lives and businesses influenced when ideas, goods and financing are adopted by other cultures?
Introduced by Sir Richard Branson, Globalisation Laid Bare asks for much-needed clarification on globalisation from the most talked- about experts in the West and Asia-from former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan to eminent historian Niall Ferguson (whose contribution is new to this edition), to ecofeminist Vandana Shiva. Each expert offers their core insights into globalisation, making this opaque subject transparent.
