Description
Globalisation: A Framework for Analysis and Policy Making The concept of globalisation is complex and multifaceted, encompassing various aspects such as economic integration, governance, social and environmental developments. Despite its widespread impact, there is no universally accepted definition of globalisation. This book proposes an approach to measuring globalisation and its consequences, drawing on a comprehensive review of the literature and data from reputable sources. The authors apply their framework to examine the effects of globalisation on key areas such as tax policy, government spending, economic growth, inequality, union power, and the natural environment. By analysing these relationships, they identify additional avenues for research, analysis, and decision making in this critical field.
