==Globalization, from the global perspective, is neutral== | |||
The first globalization created the world price. Raw materials, agricultural commodities, industrial products, could be bought at different places for the same price. 20th century globalization anchored itself in world financial institutions, which were created to protect world price, world financial flows, and world markets. The aim was to keep stability of the world price system, avoid deep global economic and financial disruptions. The year 2008 most probably marks the end of late 20th century financial globalization. As we see it now, globalization is neither the source, nor the solution to financial and economic crises. It is a connector, transmitter, it amplifies. The question comes: how to avoid next round of globalization failure? | The first globalization created the world price.
