Globalização - A Grande Desilusão

This work, based on Joseph E. Stiglitz's experiences as a renowned economist, as chairman of Clinton's Council of Economic Advisers, and as chief economist of the World Bank, opens a wide window allowing us to "see" previously unknown aspects of global economic policy. The author's aim is to provoke a healthy debate around such a delicate issue, while revealing, in dramatic terms, how developing countries experience the economic barriers that stand in their way. For George Soros, this is a book that "explains the limitations of global economic policy. (...) Joseph Stiglitz sensitively describes the various ways in which the main institutions of globalization have failed in relation to the countries in difficulty that they should serve."
