Reviews

'A scholarly debunking of the vastly overrated benefits of free trade and globalisation. Dunkley shows that mainstream economic theory has sold the world yet another dud.' Steve Keen, author of Debunking Economics


`A scholarly debunking of the vastly overrated benefits of free trade and globalization. Dunkley shows that mainstream economic theory has sold the world yet another dud.'Steve Keen, author of Debunking Economics `Provides a beautifully written, evidence-based argument that the economic benefits of globalization have been exaggerated.' Robert H. Wade, London School of Economics


`A scholarly debunking of the vastly overrated benefits of free trade and globalization. Dunkley shows that mainstream economic theory has sold the world yet another dud.' Steve Keen, author of Debunking Economics `Provides a beautifully written, evidence-based argument that the economic benefits of globalization have been exaggerated.' Robert H. Wade, London School of Economics 'Capitalist globalisation needs a supporting ideology ... Challenging that ideology by scrutinising the actual effects of globalisation is fundamentally important. Graham Dunkley's contribution is the latest in a long line of books seeking to do so, and it is one of the very best. ... This is a powerful critique of capitalist globalisation, its ideology of free trade and globalisation pacts .' Frank Stilwell, Australian Political Economy
