• Sommario/riassunto: "In this ... book, [the author] challenges the oft-repeated notion that free trade and global integration are the best means of development for all nations at all times - an idea that has proved even more misguided in the wake of the global financial crisis. By contrast, [the author] reveals - through a wide range of statistical analysis and case studies - that at best the evidence is mixed. Looking systematically at issues such as trade-led growth, supply chains and financialization, [this book] reveals that many problems that over-globalization has caused, often at great human cost."--
