Synopsis

This authoritative Handbook provides a thorough account and analysis of the important issues relating to the globalization of the international economy. The increasing interdependence of the world's economies has caused a breakdown in national economic boundaries and a freer access to goods, services and labour. This comprehensive book, written by experts in the field, addresses major issues associated with this international economic integration.

This reference work considers:

• global growth including inequality, saving, foreign direct investment, external debt and multinational corporations
• regionalization and globalization of trade such as the role of international institutions, external economies of scale and trading blocs
• transition to market economies in Central and Eastern Europe, the former Soviet Union and East Asia
• internationalization and integration of markets including the financial, capital, labour and agricultural markets
• global environmental and resource problems including transboundary pollution, the implication of North-South trade for natural resource depletion and environmental degradation, and the impact of energy markets on global growth, pollution and economic stability.
