A People's World: Alternatives to Economic Globalization de John Madeley

A People's World: Alternatives to Economic Globalization

Autor John Madeley
en Limba Engleză Paperback – sep 2003
John Madeley has interviewed some of the world's most courageous campaigners and progressive thinkers, discovering their thoughts on globalization and what an alternative to it might look like. His interviewees include: Peggy Antrobus, Walden Bello, Barry Coates, Fiona Dove, Gustavo Esteva, Hazel Henderson, Francois Houtart, Martin Khor, David Korten, Caroline Lucas MEP, Helena Norberg-Hodge, Ann Pettifor, Devinder Sharma, Vandana Shiva, Victoria Tauli-Corpuz and many others. In doing so, Madelely strips bare the myth there are no alternatives to the present economic system.

An inspiring and timely book of ideas and practical proposals for those campaigning for a world in which economic systems can benefit the poor, a world that is more just, humane, stable and conducive to the diversity of human cultures.

Recenzii

Brings much useful information together [and] asks many fundamental questions.
An excellent book
Absorbing reading for anyone concerned about the risks of hi-tech farming methods.
Readers will be spurred to use their voices as consumers, investors and voters to resist the monopoly power of the new 'global apartheid', a system which sucks the labour out of people and discards the skins.
A readable account of the increasing power of big businesses
A grim account of exploitation and neglect.
John Madeley's demolition job on the structure of international trade and finance, and the work of WTO, is convincing. This book needs to be widely read.
John Madeley produces the evidence which show that TNCs are not working to benefit developing countries? A very easy, but disturbing, read.
A useful introductory critique of corporate involvement in developing countries... [which] leaves readers knowing they have a lot of work ahead.
Readable and persuasive?. A timely and cogent examination of transnational corporations, the engines that drive globalization.
A sober and factual survey of a world economy dominated by big transnational corporations.
