About This Book
Globalization Has Triumphed, But Can We Save the Poor?
For most people except the world’s very richest, globalization is failing,
catastrophically. If we don’t act, its failure will lead to a global upheaval
worse than any in human history. But there’s another, better path. Isaak shows
how a new globalization can give the poor a powerful stake, both here and
abroad. Isaak's ideas can lead toward a more stable, peaceful world, in which we
can all build our futures, rich and poor alike.
“An impassioned report on the dangerous side of globalization, the book is a
much-needed counter to the widespread propensity of economists to spring
automatically to its defense. Recognizing that globalization cannot be wished
away, the author turns to the proper question: how can we ensure that its
potential contribution to welfare is not lost?” -- William Baumol, Emeritus
Professor, Princeton University, and co-author of Downsizing in America:
Reality, Causes and Consequences
“Robert Isaak's new book presents fresh ideas on globalization that will enrich
a polarized debate between the pessimists and the hyper-optimists. His work
brings back Ortega y Gasset classic ideas of the late 1930’s when the "masses"
brought down globalization and with it the worst recession and the bloodiest
war. I am sure that Isaak's book will guide the readers to look forward after
learning from past ideas and experiences.” --Jorge Pinto, former Ambassador of
Mexico and member of the Board of the World Bank. Director of the Center for
Global Finance
