The Lexus and the Olive Tree: Understanding Globalization
Publisher: Simon & Schuster Audio
Author: Thomas L. Friedman
Audio lenght: 3 hours
Globalization is not just a phenomenon and not just a passing trend. It is the international system that replaced the Cold War system, argues Thomas L. Friedman, Foreign Affairs columnist for The New York Times, in this important program. Globalization is the integration of capital, technology, and information across national borders, in a way that is creating a single global market and, to some degree, a global village. You cannot understand the morning news or know where to invest your money or think about where the world is going, Friedman explains, unless you understand this new system which is influencing the domestic policies and international relations of virtually every country in the world today. And once you do understand the world as Friedman describes it, you'll never look at it quite the same way again.
