内容説明

Presenting new analytical and policy-oriented research, this timely study examines the positive, as well as the negative social impact of globalisation in countries at various stages of economic development. The report looks at how globalisation stimulates output and income for some nations, but can also create wider income inequalities, job instability and economic vulnerability. It investigates what kinds of policies (economic, social and labour) can be adopted to improve the benefits and reduce the costs as the world becomes more economically integrated. Using statistical evidence, empirical research and the use of modern tools of economic analysis, this book examines the social impact in Bangladesh, Chile, Mauritius, Poland, the Republic of Korea, South Africa and Switzerland. It takes an objective approach to understanding the relationship between trade liberalisation and social progress and explores the relevant issues of trade and capital flows, globalisation and new patterns of employment, as well as the cost of gfree capital movements. The role of effective policy is also reviewed and the study reveals how governments and social partners have an important role to play in the development of policies that can improve benefits. It offers suggestions for meaningful social policy in such areas as education and training, social safety nets, labour law and industrial relations. Accompanying this synthesis study are seven detailed country reports.
