GLOBALIZATION AND SOCIAL JUSTICE

Arye Hillman ()

The Singapore Economic Review (SER), 2008, vol. 53, issue 02, 173-189

Abstract: Globalization enhances efficiency and economic growth and expands the domain of personal contact and communication. Nonetheless, globalization has also evoked discontent because of claimed social injustice. The relation between globalization and social justice therefore merits attention, in order to identify whether justifications for discontent are present and, if there are reasons for discontent, to establish whether globalization should be blamed.
