Although this international integration presents tremendous opportunities for developing countries, it also has raised concerns about rising inequality, shifting power, and cultural uniformity. This report assesses the impact of globalization and addresses the ensuing anxieties. It proposes an agenda for action aimed at mitigating the risks that globalization potentially generates, while maximizing the opportunities for the poor.--Publisher description UR - http://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0611/2001279304-d.html UR - http://www.worldcat.org/title/globalization-growth-and-poverty-building-an-inclusive-world-economy/oclc/48626240&referer=brief_results UR - http://lib.ewubd.edu/ebook/7787 ER -
