Globalization refers to the rapid integration of low-income countries into the world economy, and the ever accelerating flow of goods and services, workers and investment across national boundaries. There's a great deal of debate over whether these contries benefit from globalization, or are injured by it. In this podcast from Reunions Weekend 2008, two of the University's top professors present their thoughts on the growing global economy. Economic professor Bruce Reynolds will explore China's experience with globalization. Ray Blumberg, the William R. Kenan Jr. Professor of Sociology will discuss why women's economic empowerment may be the magic potion to achieving Millenium Development Goals.
