In The Effects of Globalization in Latin America, Africa, and Asia,
Kema Irogbe argues that the forces of globalization, which include
the IMF/World Bank, WTO, and Western media technology, are
subordinated to the interests of multinational corporations under
the tutelage of a lone superpower in strangling the development
efforts of poor countries. Irogbe subjects the operations and the
existing relationships among these international governmental and
nongovernmental actors to the test of empirical reality and logical
plausibility by drawing from the experiences of a varied selection
of marginalized countries, such as Venezuela, Guatemala, Mexico,
Brazil in Latin America; Nigeria, South Africa, and Ghana in
Africa; and Iraq, Iran, India, Afghanistan, and Vietnam in Asia.
The book argues that globalization is a sophisticated lexicon for
the pursuit of a homogenized political, economic, and cultural
world order, which is a recipe for unending global crises.
