Paper Summary:

This paper compares and contrasts William Greider's book "One World Ready or Not" to John Cavanagh's and Richard Barnet's book "Global Dreams". The paper looks at the themes both books discuss, their differing interpretations of globalization and their agreement in terms of where power tends to be concentrated in the global environment. The paper also explains the different approach to talking about globalization exhibited in each text and points out that both books fail to address the vital concern of natural resources.

From the Paper:

"Greider also compares globalization to an agricultural reaping machine that is plowing the fields while leaving great havoc in its wake. Yet his consistent metaphors throughout the book involve comparing this "machine" to a military maneuver, an act of revolution, or a bloody coup. The new economic world order is a political revolution of sorts, with all of the consequent upheavals and danger."
