Globalization and International Development: Critical Issues of the 21st Century

Edited by Sisay Asefa

in Books from Upjohn Press from W.E. Upjohn Institute for Employment Research

Abstract: These papers address globalization issues with a special emphasis on its impact on poverty. In general, the contributors recommend expanding the flows between countries to accelerate growth and reduce inequalities. These flows include international trade and capital, migration, remittances, and foreign aid. But in addition to these hard commodities and dollars, there are flows of ideas, knowledge, and technical assistance which require enforcement of appropriate intellectual property rights.
