10 Preface Globalization is transforming the world at an accelerated pace. Integration of the world continues, widening and intensifying international linkages in economic, political and social relations. Liberalization of trade and fmance, lubricated by revolutionary changes in information technology, has resulted in significant economic growth at the global level. On the other hand, the process of globalization is changing the nature of production relations, threatening the traditional roles of the nation-state, and carrying with it far-reaching implications for sustainable growth, development and the environment. Although both developed and developing countries are actively participating in this saga of globalization, nearly ninety countries, as the United Nations' Human Development Report, 1996 indicates, are worse off economically than they were ten years ago, leading to "global polarization" between haves and have nots. The report further indicates that the gap between the per capita incomes of the industrialized world and the developing countries, far from narrowing, has more than tripled during the last thirty years. Further, a majority of the countries benefitting from this globalization drive have seen a rise in inequality and poverty. This failure of market driven globalization to reward the benefits equitably led the United Nations to proclaim 1996 as the International Year for the Eradication of Poverty (IYEP) and the decade of as the international decade for the eradication of poverty, and to promote "people-centered sustainable development". It is against this backdrop that nearly seventy leading scholars world wide have come together to explore and analyze a variety of challenges facing this "global village". Their research work is contained in a set of three volumes. One volume, entitled Globalization, Growth and Sustainability, focuses on the implications of both regional and global trade liberalization on growth, equity, sustainability and the environment. Another volume, entitled Dynamics of Globalization and Development, examines the impact of liberalization in the fields of aid, finance, capital, technology and management policies both at the micro and macro levels. This volume focuses on the issues arising from a political economy perspective on globalization. Contributors to this volume have addressed such issues as erosion of national sovereignty, strained relations between capital and labor, gender equity, increasing tensions between North and South, and changes in the roles of international institutions, labor organizations, nation-states and nongovernmental organizations. Although authors disagree over details, they all
11 recognize an urgent need for refmements in the dominant capitalist paradigm, and a need for strong leadership to implement the changes in a way that would enable all people to achieve their full potential, both as individuals and as members of the global family. This anthology will provide valuable insights and important background analysis for scholars working in the field of globalization as well as senior undergraduate and graduate students in a variety of curricula, including economics, development studies, political science, international relations and international business. A project of this nature, obviously, can not be carried out without substantial help from others. Nearly two years ago, Sandy Darity Jr. invited me to edit one volume on a current topic for the Recent Economic Thought Series. However, the response on the subject matter of this project was so overwhelming that I could not accommodate nearly thirty proposals. I therefore first thank all the scholars who expressed an interest in contributing to the project and apologize to those who, in spite of their excellent proposals, could not be included. Second, I owe a special sense of gratitude to Nanda Choudhry who provided help for this volume in the initial stages of the project and to Francis Adams who helped me in a number of ways in the fmal stages of the project, including co-authoring the introductory chapter for this volume. Third, I am thankful to the anonymous reviewers whose comments, though invisible, are well reflected in the chapters of this book. Fourth, I wish to thank St. Thomas University for research grants and a number of colleagues including Stan Atherton, Roger Barnsley, Ian Fraser, Tom Good, John Jennings, Santosh Kabadi, Joan McFarland, Richard Myers and Andrew Secord for their help and encouragement. Preparing manuscripts in a camera-ready format, as I learned from this experience, can become a tedious and an extremely time consuming job for an academic. lowe special thanks to a number of assistants who helped me in this venture. Fifth, I wish to thank Sandy Darity Jr. and Warren Samuels, co-editors of the Recent Economic Thought Series and Zachry Rolnick and his staff at Kluwer for providing this opportunity and, in particular, for their help, encouragement and understanding in publishing three oversized volumes on the subject. Finally, lowe a special sense of appreciation to my wife Sarita and children Hansa and Santosh who were often deprived of usual family and social discourse for nearly two years. They also deserve special thanks for their labor oflove on a number of tasks associated with this project. DevGupta December 1996
