  • Martin Wolf in FT See his Why Globalization Works is a book of history and instruction. It is narrower in its aims than John McMillan's Reinventing the Bazaar, more reportorial than Jagdish Bhagwati's In Defense of Globalization. Its moral is that the international trading system broke down before, in the interval between 1914 and 1945, and that it could happen again. Nearly half the book is devoted to rebutting a series of arguments against the international trading system -- that it fosters inequality, despoils the environment, aggrandizes the power of corporations at the expense of legitimate states, and increases volatility. "The sight of the affluent young in the west wishing to protect the poor of the world from the processes that delivered their own remarkable prosperity is depressing." And all this background is history is very useful.
