Business & Money - January 2025 @SCCLD
1 user likes thisAccording to an article published by Stanford University’s Institute for Economic Policy Research (SIEPR), populist sentiments of anti-globalization have risen the past several years in developed countries. Hopes for a unified world economy appear to have stalled. However, some academics such as Caroline Freund, dean of the School of Global Policy and Strategy at the University of California, San Diego, argue that what is actually happening is a reshaping of the economy. She reminds us that, “Globalization has experienced setbacks before.” This book list provides a historical perspective of globalization by economists, business people and historians that could provide a blue print to inform our future actions. The significance of this cannot be understated. As Jeffrey Sachs, renowned economist and expert on sustainable development from Columbia University, states, “Today's most urgent problems are fundamentally global. They require nothing less than concerted, planet-wide action if we are to secure a long-term future.” References Crawford, K. (31 October 2023). “Globalization: Making sense of the backlash,” Stanford University’s Institute for Economic Policy Research (SIEPR). https://siepr.stanford.edu/news/globalization-making-sense-backlash
