More DescriptionExpanding the powerful argument he makes with Thomas Friedman in their bestselling That Used to Be Us, Michael Mandelbaum describes the forces driving the next stage of globalization, one of expanding wealth and vast opportunity.
IN The Road to Global Prosperity, Michael Mandelbaum, a leading authority on international affairs and coauthor of the bestselling That Used to Be Us, looks at recent developments that question our optimism about the world's economic future: the financial meltdown of 2008, Europe's troubled currency, the reduced growth of China, India, and other emerging nations. Yet there are powerful reasons to believe that globalization will continue to make the world richer.
Mandelbaum explains why globalization is both irreversible and a positive force for the world. As technology and free markets expand, more nations connect. As immigration increases, as more money crosses borders, and as more countries emerge from poverty, individuals and societies around the world will benefit.
The Road to Global Prosperity illuminates the political issues that will determine the economic future. Mandelbaum makes a persuasive case for optimism and offers a concrete, practical guide to the economic challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.
