Adjusting to Globalization

The globalization process is pervasive, bringing a range of pressures to bear on firms and workers. This volume presents a series of cutting-edge essays, investigating the ways in which firms and workers are adjusting to globalization. Written by leading researchers in the field, the essays address such issues as: outsourcing; the productivity effects of entry to export markets; job losses and wage insurance; and the protection of intellectual property. Together, they provide important insights into the microeconomic effects of globalization and highlight key issues for policy makers.Greenaway, David is the author of 'Adjusting to Globalization', published 2005 under ISBN 9781405131698 and ISBN 1405131691.
