商品簡介
Hines, a fellow of the International Forum on Globalization and formerly head of Greenpeace's International Economic Unit, offers a refreshing twist on the mantra of the inevitability of a globalized economy. He calls his work a "mindwrench" away from acquiescence with mainstream economists and commentators who embrace globalization. Outlining the adverse effects international competition is now having on society, equity, and the environment, he details national and regional policies that could provide an alternative. Hines's aim is to help shift debate toward a focus on what the goals of world trade should be, as well as outlining concrete steps that can lead to a more just, environmentally sustainable future.
