An eye-opening, 21stCentury guide to the myths and realities of the international economy. Fully updated and expanded second edition: The new version of The Field Guide takes an insightful look at overseas outsourcing, NAFTA's 10 year report card, the Wal-Mart Economy, and the story of Argentina's demise (the former start pupil of the World Bank), among other timely subjects. Foreword by Barbara Ehrenreich: Field Guide features a foreword by the best-selling author of Nickel and Dimed. Timeliness of subject: Today's newspapers are saturated with stories on the global economy, exploitation of foreign workers, and the evils of globalization. The Field Guide examines all the issues behind the headlines and contextualises the current crisis within the history of the global economy. This fully updated and expanded 2nd edition of The Field Guide to the Global Economy presents the latest facts to help the average person make sense of the rapidly changing international economy. Highly illustrated with charts, graphs, and cartoons, the book clearly documents new trends, including the foreign "outsourcing" of U.S. service jobs, as well as the increasing influence of union-busting China and W Published in conjunction with the Institute for Policy Studies, a Washington, D.C.-based, independent research institute, this fact-filled, accessible guide explains how global institutions such as the World Bank, International Monetary Fund, World Trade Organization, and the North American Free Trade Agreement affect communities, workers, the poor, and the environment. The book dispels common claims of supporters of current globalization policies and provides an update on the exciting movement that is challenging these policies, from Bolivian water warriors to U.S. student anti-sweatshop activists.
