Kurzbeschreibung
International Edition -- Globalization: The New World
The thousand faces of globalization. The consequences, the winners and the losers. A comprehensive overview. In SPIEGEL special. 146 pages.
Inhalt
Global trade is growing at an unprecedented speed, propelled by up-and-coming
economies and revolutionary technologies. But not everyone is reaping the
rewards equally. The world¿s wealth is being redistributed, with new winners and
new losers. Some countries are advancing while others are falling behind, creating
a climate of fear and insecurity. Many see globalization as a hostile, invisible
force that now controls their lives, jeopardizing both their jobs and their standard
of living. The German weekly DER SPIEGEL recently chronicled the impact of
globalization in a major series that forms the basis for this 146-page SPIEGEL special.
Journalists from the magazine¿s business, international and social affairs sections
traveled the world to research their stories. They talked to high-tech companies
in India and day laborers in China; they analyzed the vagaries of the global financial
markets and the survival strategies of major corporations.
