Description
Haves, Have Nots, Have Beens and Wannabes: Re-aligning globalisation to promote commerce
Speaker(s): Professor Kenneth Costa
This is the first truly global financial crisis. We will try to find the parameters for a debate, which would recognise the extraordinary achievements of globlisation for example in the fight against poverty and, on the other hand, the view that globalisation is but tolerated exploitation by the developed world of the developing world. We will further look at growth in protectionism and the threats to cross-boarder commercial activities and examine free trade and fair trade. How will global shifts of power and influence from the developed world to the emerging world affect global security.
Part of the Gresham College series of lectures.
