World 3.0: Global Prosperity and How to Achieve It



Author: Pankaj Ghemawat

Book Site: World 3.0



Since the financial crisis of 2008, many of us have had to reexamine our beliefs about markets and globalization. Many people fuse two dimensions of choice into one, either favoring globalization and deregulation -- or opposing both of them.

In World 3.0, award-winning author and economist Pankaj Ghemawat reveals the folly in both of these responses. He calls for a third worldview -- one in which both regulation and cross-border integration coexist and complement one another. Ghemawat starts by exposing common assumptions about globalization to hard data, aiming to prove that the world is not nearly as globalized as we think. And he explains why the potential gains from further integration are much larger than even pro globalizers tend to believe.
