Description

A collection of public policy essays about globalization argues that the clinton adminstration embraced unsubstantiated anti-globalization rhetoric resulting in the paradox of domestic policy success and failure on the external front.

First Sentence

In the aftermath of the Asian financial crisis, the mainstream view, indeed the prevalent myth, that dominates policy circles is that despite the evidence of a crisis-prone world of freer capital mobility as inescapably brought to our attention by the 1994 Mexican peso debacle and the current Asian tragedy, a world characterized by full capital mobility continues to be not just inevitable but also immensely desirable.
