Despite the importance of the topic, few attempts have been made to present a long-term economic analysis of the phenomenon, one that frames the issue by examining its place in the long history of international integration. This volume collects eleven papers doing exactly that and more. The first group of essays explores how the process of globalization can be measured in terms of the long-term integration of different markets-from the markets for goods and commodities to those for labor and capital, and from the sixteenth century to the present. The second set of contributions places this knowledge in a wider context, examining some of the trends and questions that have emerged as markets converge and diverge: the roles of technology and geography are both considered, along with the controversial issues of globalization's effects on inequality and social justice and the roles of political institutions in responding to them. The final group of essays addresses the international financial systems that play such a large part in guiding the process of globalization, considering the influence of exchange rate regimes, financial development, financial crises, and the architecture of the international financial system itself. This volume reveals a much larger picture of the process of globalization, one that stretches from the establishment of a global economic system during the nineteenth century through the disruptions of two world wars and the Great Depression into the present day. The keen analysis, insight, and wisdom in this volume will have something to offer a wide range of readers interested in this important issue. 410 0$aNational Bureau of Economic Research conference report. 606 $aGlobalization$xEconomic aspects$vCongresses 606 $aGlobalization$xSocial aspects 606 $aInternational economic integration$vCongresses 606 $aInternational economic relations$vCongresses 606 $aInternational finance$vCongresses 606 $aInternational trade$xSocial aspects 615 0$aGlobalization$xEconomic aspects 615 0$aGlobalization$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aInternational economic integration 615 0$aInternational economic relations 615 0$aInternational finance 615 0$aInternational trade$xSocial aspects. 676 $a337 701 $aBordo$b Michael D$0119439 701 $aTaylor$b Alan M.$f1964-$0119543 701 $aWilliamson$b Jeffrey G.$f1935-$0123346 712 02$aNational Bureau of Economic Research. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910821055003321 996 $aGlobalization in historical perspective$94203892 997 $aUNINA
