About this title

Synopsis

Bachelor Thesis from the year 2011 in the subject Politics - Topic: Globalization, Political Economics, grade: Good, Jacobs University Bremen gGmbH, course: Thesis, BA Integrated Social Sciences, language: English, abstract: The study examines possibility of future globalization backlash as a result of trade and migration income distribution effects. By looking back into the history of past globalization in the late 19th century, more specially, during 1880-1914, the study defines the cases of backlash. Coming back to the present, bearing in mind past experiences, current contexts of trade and migration in the current era of globalization are evaluated, in particular, the last 30 years. The study shows that, with a healthy dose of restriction and safety net from the government, income distribution effect can be controlled and therefore, a future of globalization is not a likely outcome.
