 | Has International Economic Integration Gone Too Far? Globalization is exposing social fissures between those with the education, skills & mobility to flourish in an unfettered world market-the apparent winners & those without. These apparent losers are increasingly anxious about their standards of living & their precarious place in an integrated world economy. The result is severe tension between the market & broad sectors of society, with governments caught in the middle. Compounding the very real problems that need to be addressed by all involved, the kneejerk rhetoric of both sides threatens to crowd out rational debate. From the United States to Europe to Asia, positions are hardening. Author Don Rodrik brings a clear & reasoned voice to these questions. Has Globalization Gone Too Far? takes an unblinking & objective look at the economists for downplaying its dangers. It also makes a unique & perusaive case that the winners have as much at stake from the possible consequences of social instability as the losers. As Rodrik points out ...social disintegration is not a spectator sport those on the sidelines also get splashed with mud from the fields. Ultimately, the deepening of social fissures can harm all. President Clinton has read the book & it provided the conceptual basis for the trade/IMF portions of the State of the Union message in January 1998.
