Synopsis
Written by a premier group of thinkers from around the world, Alternatives to Economic Globalization is the defining document of the antiglobalization movement. It presents both a sober critique of globalization as well as practical, thoughtful alternatives.
The authors assert ten core requirements for democratic societies, including equality, basic human rights, local decision making, and ecological sustainability, and demonstrate how globalization undermines each. Offering specific strategies for reining in corporate domination, they address alternative systems for energy, agriculture, transportation, and manufacturing; ideas for weakening or dismantling the WTO, World Bank, and IMF; and rebuilding economies that are responsive to human needs.

About the Author
The International Forum on Globalization is an alliance of leading activists, scholars, economists, researchers, and writers - representing 60 organizations in 25 countries - that was formed in 1994 to stimulate new thinking, joint activity, and public education in response to economic globalization. This consensus document has been a collaborative project of a drafting committee made up of eleven members of the IFG Board of Directors, along with eight other contributors, many of whom are internationally known and bestselling authors in their own right and who represent important organizations: John Cavanagh - bestselling author of Global Dreams, which has sold 60,000 copies through Simon & Schuster - and Jerry Mander - President of the IFG Board of Directrs and the author of the bestsellling books In the Absence of the Sacred and Four Arguments for the Elimination of Television - are coordinating the writing of the book.
