Samenvatting

Drawing on examples from around the world, the author describes the potential dangers of globalization and the exportation of free-market democracy, arguing that they do not spread wealth evenly through a society but instead produce a class of wealthy plutocrats, as well as increased ethnic conflict, violence, ethnonationalism, and other potentially disastrous results. Reprint. 60,000 first printing.
