Download or read book Globalization and Development written by United Nations. Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean and published by Stanford Social Science. This book was released on 2003 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The international response to opportunities and risks arising from globalization has been incomplete and uneven. But a proactive approach by a network of institutions could correct existing asymmetries and build a rights-based international social agenda. Globalization and Development provides a historical overview of economic development in the Latin America and Caribbean region - and proposes an economic and noneconomic agenda that addresses disparity, respects diversity, and fosters complementarity among regional, national, and international institutions. "This book provides a profound analysis of key problems facing the global economic order. Equally important, the agenda put forward provides perceptive food for thought for all who are committed to overcoming the fundamental asymmetries that pervade the world economy today. It recognizes that success in creating a better global order must go beyond the topics that have been at the center of discussion in the past: There must be an adequate supply of global public goods, and we need to incorporate at the global level values that we often take for granted at the national level--a commitment to global democracy, global citizenship, and global social justice."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In mid-2011, conditions deteriorated in the industrialized economies. Early in the year, instability in North Africa combined with other factors to push up fuel prices. Then, in March, the tragedy of the earthquake, tsunami and nuclear disaster in Japan damaged global production chains. Although the impacts of these factors eased in the second semester, concern mounted over the threat of default in Greece, Ireland and Portugal and the repercussions of such an event for larger European economies. In late July, the difficulties in securing congressional approval on the United States public debt ceiling added to the volatility prevailing in financial markets. The downgrading of the United States' sovereign debt rating for the first time ever and lacklustre economic growth rates in the euro area and the United States added to the uncertainty.
