Grzegorz W. Kolodko
Globalization and Catching-Up in Transition Economies

2002 y.
Publisher: University of Rochester Press
Description: Kolodko, former finance minister of Poland, considers the links between issues of globalization and post-communist transition, the two most important economic features of the turn of the century. He discusses the pattern of economic growth and contraction of the past fifty years, and reviews the options for the next half century. He accounts for the severity of the transitional recession in Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union as a result of both the legacies of the past and current policy mistakes, but demonstrates how structural reforms and gradual institutional building have enabled some postsocialist economies to recover. He proposes that, within the wider context of globalization, several of these emerging market economies will be able to catch up with the more advanced industrial countries, but emphasises the need for quality growth policies and continuing coordination between development strategies and efforts toward structural reform.

Globalization and Culture at Work : Exploring their Combined Glocality

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionBehaviour at work can no longer be stereotyped as global or local – modern or traditional – with very little in-between. Instead work behaviour is a complex interplay between Global and Local values. It takes place in a Glocality. Thus individual achievement co-exists with group aspirations, pay diversity takes place in a social context, teamwork reflects cultural narrative, and labour mobility is bound by community bias. Globalization and Culture at Work: Exploring their Combined Glocality breaks new ground by exploring such glocalities, and the implications they create for managing human potential better. The volume is essential reading for researchers, managers, culturalists and consultants of work behaviour alike. [detailed...]

Publisher: —

Globalization and Environmental Reform: The Ecological Modernization of the Global Economy

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Many writers either glorify globalization or vilify it, particularly for its destructive environmental effects. In this book environmental sociologist Arthur Mol provides a more balanced understanding of the relationship between globalization and environmental quality. Mol bases his arguments on his theory of ecological modernization, which holds that although processes of modernization and globalization often result in environmental degradation, they also can encourage policies and programs designed to arrest degradation and improve environmental quality. Building on earlier ecological modernization studies that focused on Europe, North America, and East and Southeast Asia, Mol takes here a more global perspective. He also addresses the increasing roles of nonstate actors, especially international institutions, nongovernmental organizations, popular movements, and transnational corporations. After examining the confusion created by the failure to distinguish… [detailed...]

Globalization and European Welfare States: Challenges and Change

Description: This text seeks to counter the recent vogue for somewhat unsubstantiated speculation about the impact of globalization upon welfare states. Combining both theoretical and empirical analysis it asks `What is globalization, and how has it been implicated in recent changes to European welfare states?` Covering all the major European welfare systems, it suggests new empirical and theoretical perspectives. Globalization processes exist, but their link with welfare change is complex, and varies both between countries and types of welfare state. [detailed...]

Description: The world is becoming more integrated and interdependent, heightening the need for new approaches to global governance. How can the international community collectively respond to pressing global problems? What kinds of institutions are needed, and what kinds of instruments will help them function?

Taken together, this collection of original essays pays special attention to the prospect for strengthening an institutional world order by encouraging and enforcing compliance with international norms.

Globalization and Growth : Case Studies in National Economic Strategies

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description This text contains cases developed for use in teaching international political economy at the Harvard Business School. They represent the major developmental trajectories that have defined the recent history of economic growth. These cases empirically describe the strategies of China, India, Japan, Mexico, South Africa, Poland and the Czech Republic, Europe and the United States. As a group, these countries represent more than half the world?s population and nearly two-thirds of its gross domestic product. The cases are as much political and institutional as they are economic and are based on Harvard?s way of teaching analytical methodology for managers called `country analysis,` which is a method of identifying the economic performance,social and political context, and national development strategy of a country or region. It also assesses each strategy in terms of its effects on the performance and its fit with context. [detailed...]

Globalization and History: The Evolution of a Nineteenth-Century Atlantic Economy

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Globalization is not a new phenomenon, nor is it irreversible. In Gobalization and History, Kevin O`Rourke and Jeffrey Williamson present a coherent picture of trade, migration, and international capital flows in the Atlantic economy in the century priorto 1914--the first great globalization boom, which anticipated the experience of the last fifty years. The authors estimate the extent of globalization and its impact on the participating countries, and discuss the political reactions that it provoked. The book`s originality lies in its application of the tools of open-economy economics to this critical historical period--differentiating it from most previous work, which has been based on closed-economy or single-sector models. The authors also keep a close eye on globalization debates of the 1990s, using history to inform the present and vice versa. The book brings together research conducted by the authors over the past decade--work that has profoundly… [detailed...]

It explores the categories we use to think about globalization, the dynamics which are driving it, and the effects which globalizing tendencies are having on the key institutional features of the contemporary world. The contributors examine not only how globalization is refashioning political and economic institutions, but also the way in which specific forms of knowledge and technology are shaping the ongoing dynamic of globalization.

Description: Due to massive media coverage, many people are familiar with the controversy and organized resistance that globalization has generated around the world, yet explaining what globalization actually means in practice is a complicated task. For those wanting to learn more, this book is an excellent place to start. An experienced economist, Joseph Stiglitz had a brilliant career in academia before serving for four years on President Clinton`s Council of Economic Advisors and then three years as chief economist and senior vice president of the World Bank. His book clearly explains the functions and powers of the main institutions that govern globalization--the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank, and the World Trade Organization--along with the ramifications, both good and bad, of their policies. He strongly believes that globalization can be a positive force around the world, particularly for the poor, but only if the IMF, World Bank, and WTO dramatically alter the way they… [detailed...]

Description: Our world is changing. Globalization is not working. It is hurting those it was meant to help. And now, the tide is turning… Explosive and shocking, `Globalization and Its Discontents` is the bestselling expose of the all-powerful organizations that control our lives - from the man who has seen them at work first hand. As chief economist at the world bank, Nobel prize-winner Joseph Stiglitz had a unique insider`s view into the management of globalization. Now he speaks out against it: how the IMF and WTO preach fair trade yet impose crippling economic policies on developing nations, how free market `shock therapy` made millions in East Asia and Russia worse off than they were before, and how the West has driven the global agenda to further its own financial interests. Globalization can still be a force for good, Stiglitz Argues. But the balance of power has to change. Here he offers real, tough solutions for the future. Формат:… [detailed...]
