View Presentation: Whatever Happened to Globalization?
An authority on the topic of globalization from a well-known consulting firm
will discuss what has happened to the globalization trend that captured the
imagination of corporations in the 1990's. Since the technology bust and
emergence of global terrorism in 2001 there's been much less coverage of
this topic---there's even fewer demonstrators at the WTO conferences. Is
globalization still a trend or has it been replaced by regionalization?
