Debating Globalization

By France Gyan France and GYAN France

Does globalization alleviate world poverty or contribute to it? Does it harm local culture or bring people together? Has free trade hurt the poor more than helped? What are globalization's effects on the environment and human rights? This book is a forum where dynamic youth from around the world debate these issues. Contained in this volume are provocative articles from both sides of this controversial debate. "In these pages, we hear youth speak about what is right with globalization, what is wrong, and how diverse actors can join forces in ensuring tomorrow s peace, security, and sustainability. I am happy to commend this book to anyone who wants to share the visions of our world s youth on the important issues of our day." - Bhichai Rattakul Former President of Rotary International & Foreign Minister of Thailand
