Globalization may be the most hotly debated issue surrounding
poverty. The benefits and costs of global economic integration are
critical and complex. Is a globalized, free-market economy part of
the solution to economic injustice or part of the problem? Are the
international monetary systems pursuing policies that will reduce
poverty or are they serving the interests of the wealthy? What do
pro-poor policy reforms look like in the areas of trade and foreign
investment? What kinds of immigration restrictions or reforms are
consistent with the Christian faith? Should development aid be
awarded only to well-governed, democratic countries? Would
unrestrained economic growth imply environmental destruction?
Economic Justice assembles leading economists to debate these and
other issues surrounding globalization's effects on the poor.
Writers urge an informed church to help identify the essentials of
a Christian perspective on the societal, environmental and economic
implications of globalization and to live accordingly.
