The ascent of globalisation tells the sweeping historical drama of
the development of globalisation, from the Second World War to the
present day. The story is told through the richly detailed accounts
of eighteen remarkable men and women, describing how these
architects reshaped the modern world, for better or worse.
Profiling their lives, ideas and struggles reveals fresh insights
into the nature of globalisation. The book also examines their
legacies, shedding new light on many of the problems the world
faces today: the global financial crisis, the political and
economic malaise afflicting Europe, the numerous failures of the
United Nations, the unchecked power of corporations and the
inability of governments to cooperate on critical issues such as
climate change. -- .
