They assess the benefits and the costs of globalization and suggest strategies for reconciling it with the interests and aspirations of the people in all regions of the world. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe contributors understand globalization not as a uniform process that should be praised or condemned in its entirety, but as a complex phenomenon that can and must be shaped and steered towards socially desirable goals. They reject the idea that the results of market processes are inexorable or invariably beneficial. On the contrary, they call for a robust global governance that is attentive to normative commitments - the common good, social justice, and democratic accountability - and does not reflect the overwhelming power of a handful of governments and corporate interests.\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eTaming Globalization\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Covers, and very impressively, a great deal of ground.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eBSA Network\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIntroduction: Globalization and the Challenge to Governance \u003ci\u003eMathias Koenig-Archibugi, The London School of Economics and Political Science.\u003c\/i\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 1: The Disturbing Rise in Poverty and Inequality: Is It All a ‘Big Lie’? \u003ci\u003eRobert Hunter Wade, The London School of Economics \u0026amp; Political Science.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 2: Globalization and Development \u003ci\u003eJoseph Stiglitz, Columbia University.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 3: Globalizing Justice \u003ci\u003eRobert E.
