The essays are original analyzes and first-hand observations of
global forces operating in the Caribbean, Latin America, Africa,
and Asia. With a historical framework of globalization and freedom,
the author, who taught at the University of Pittsburgh's Semester
at Sea Program, critically explores the influence of U.S. foreign
policies and American values that has affected these countries
where freedom prevails. For example, the author argues with Fidel
Castro and his worldview on freedom and human security while a
unique process of glocalization takes place in Cuba. With
illustrative maps and photos, the distinctive interdisciplinary
analysis presents vivid faces of the human side of globalization as
it interplays with local communities. The book is about free
enterprise and political freedom as the new American influence
through the Washington Consensus - the "Trinity of Washington" and
its "Ten Commandments" - continues with unintended consequences by
glocalizing every society and each of us.
