"This book deals with the main aspects of globalisation, namely trade, global financial flows, technology and transnational corporations, and international convergence of real wages. The concern is with the beneficial and harmful aspects of globalisation. It examines the impact of globalisation on growth, productivity, unemployment, income distribution, technology and institutions, as well as on culture. The role of government in the era of globalisation is discussed. One generally expects the scope of government to be diminished as globalisation proceeds. Instead, the author argues that globalisation and free markets call not for less government but for more, as well as increased pressures from the civil society."Streeten, Paul is the author of 'Globalisation Threat or Opportunity' with ISBN 9788763000840 and ISBN 8763000849.
