OverviewThe question of globalisation - how it should be defined and what are its implications for the developing countries - is a recurring theme in policy discussions at the national, regional and international levels, given the importance of the phenomenon and its role in shaping contemporary economic relations. Drawing on papers presented at the international symposium on 'Globalisation - A Strategic Response from the South', organised by the University of the West Indies, this offering adds to that body of literature which examines the significance of the loss of preferential trading arrangements for developing countries, including the small-island economies of the Caribbean. Globalisation: A Calculus of Inequality essentially reflects perspectives from the South on the merits and demerits of globalisation and economic liberalisation at a time when North and South are engaged in critical negotiations that will determine the distribution of economic benefits among the world's people.
