Summary

"What are globalization's gains and pains, and what do they mean for Europe? In this study Dan Hamilton and Joe Quinlan offer a balanced, up-to-date look. They map changing flows of trade, investment, people, money and ideas. They explain globalization's effect on European consumers, workers, companies and governments. Who wins, who loses, and why. They highlight opportunities, identify challenges - and offer some surprising conclusions."--BOOK JACKET.
