Globalization and Its Discontents Revisited

Economist Joseph E. Stiglitz, a Nobel laureate, expands and updates his best seller on globalization, whose first edition argued that the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank and global trade agreements often hurt the developing countries they claimed to help. In the new version he contends that globalization is still mismanaged, and that its harms, notably the inequality it has fed, have now reached the United States and Europe, where they show up as political unrest. New chapters take up Donald Trump's rise, the new protectionism and these fresh discontents, and a new afterword follows globalization since the book first came out. Stiglitz holds that globalization can still do good, but only if the balance of power shifts.
