Globalization: obsession or necessity?

Article Abstract:

The course of globalization need not be strictly regulated, nor will it necessarily devolve into a harsh winner-take-all free-market capitalism seen in the beginning of the industrial age. The US/World Bank vision of free capital markets and little or no barriers to trade appears to have many international skeptics, and that vision is certainly subject to modification and negotiation.
