A hard-hitting look at the myths and reality behind the spread of corporate globalization.
'Globalization is the most important change in the history of humankind, and the latest name for the conspiracy of the rich against the poor. It is the phenomenon most subject to the efforts of economists and statisticians, and the least understood and measured change in our time.'
In this extraordinary book outspoken business leader Anita Roddick brings together the voices of some of the most prominent authorities on the phenomenon of Globalization, including Susan George, David Korten and Naomi Klein. Full of hard-hitting images this full colour book gets right to the heart of the issue, exploding the myths that would have us believe Globalization is a force for good. Covering aspects of the subject as diverse as human rights, the environment, international finance, health, the food we eat and trade, the book combines medium-length articles with quotes, cases notes and interviews. This book constitutes a call to action, showing how each and every one of us can take on the corporate giants and make a real difference.
