Globalization has polarised the community. Economic commentators and political leaders extol its virtues, yet many people see it as a source of insecurity. Suter argues that we need to harness the benefits of globalization to ensure that the next century is not a period of deepening inequality.

Globalization has polarised the community. Economic commentators and political leaders extol its virtues, yet many people see it as a source of insecurity and instability. Gobalization need not disadvantage less well-off groups in the community, says Keith Suter, one of Australia's leading commentators on global issues. Suter argues that we need to harness the benefits of globalization to ensure that the next century is not a period of deepening inequality and social conflict. This book should be a useful insight for readers with an interest in current affairs, politics, and contemporary issues.
