From the Paper:

"Today, no one would likely argue that the world has become a much smaller place as a result of the powerful forces of globalization that are reshaping the manner in which nations trade and negotiation and in which ordinary people educate their children, travel and earn a living. While the process may be inexorable, it has not been without some controversy as critics point out that there remains enormous disparities between the "have" and "have nots" in the international community."
