First published in 1997, Living in the Global Society reflects on
the fundamental concept of global economy as the driving force for
development, and examines how ethical values can direct this
towards the welfare of humankind in a future where peace will
reign. The contributions stem from an international conference held
in Rome on 'Economic Growth, for What Kind of Future?'. The book
examines four main themes: development and underdevelopment;
globalization in the fields of economics, finance, trade, migration
and culture; the shape of the world to come through management of
resources and goods; and finally the challenge of globalization
moving from fragmentation towards social growth based on
cooperation and integration. It is suggested that only a civil
society that is also developed at an international level can
provide the basis for a true global democracy and true peace. This
book asks, how far are we along the path towards its creation?
