- W1605278719 abstract "T he globalized world faces two contradictory trends. While a globalized market opens the prospects of unimagined wealth, it also creates new vulnerabilities to political turmoil, the danger of increased income inequalities, and cultural change. As might be expected, the acceleration of beginning in the 1990s stimulated a flurry of studies on its causes and effects by academics and activists alike. Most notably, Joseph Stiglitz's Globalization and Its Discontents (W.W. Norton, 2003) and Dani Rodrik's Has Globalization Gone too Far? (Institute for International Economics, 1997) combines with populist works such as Naomi Klein's No Logo (Picador, 2002) to highlight the problems and shortcomings of neoliberal globalization. It was inevitable that these criticisms would attract a response from its defenders. Two of the most credible efforts to date at redefining the benefits of are Why Globalization Works (Yale University Press, 2004), by the financial journalist Martin Wolf, and In Defense of Globalization (Oxford University Press, 2005) by the economist Jagdish Bhagwati. Countless other studies have joined the fray to debate the pros and cons of globalization. Globalization has also spawned a rash of books and articles focused on its impact in the Middle East/North Africa region. Following Clement Henry and Robert Springborg's pathbreaking Globalization and the Politics of Development in the Middle East (Cambridge University Press, 2001), the current wave includes the three books under review. While each addresses the challenges brought on by globalization, few generalizations are possible. Clearly globalization is a meaningful albeit ill-defined concept that connotes different things to different people. In this sense, these new contributions reflect the diverse literature on globalization. In the West, is largely viewed in economic terms the free movement of goods, services, labor, and capital across borders. Although it does not constitute a new phenomenon, is often seen as the inexorable integration of markets, nations, and technologies to an unprecedented degree. In the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, however, has often been discussed in largely ideological terms. It has been promoted by a few, such as King 'Abdullah of Jordan, but more often attacked as a new version of imperialism. Critics have pointed to a number of related dangers, all of which they see as part of a real or potential threat to their political, economic, and cultural independence. One thing is fairly certain, regardless of how one measures it: The MENA" @default.
