Abstract: Many have made the connection between growing insecurity and globalization, and in particular, the outsourcing of jobs. But this explanation runs the risk of encouraging misguided protectionist responses, especially in developed countries. This Policy Brief shows how this aspect of economic insecurity can be reduced without sacrificing trade and development.
