Description:
Discussing his new book, How to Rule the World: The Coming Battle
Over the Global Economy, author and activist Mark Engler will explore
how international social movements have responded to the shift from
Clinton-era "corporate globalization" to Bush-era "imperial
globalization," and to the rapidly changing roles of the IMF, World
Bank, and the WTO. Panelists Greg Grandin and Frida Berrigan will
join to discuss the contrasting globalization strategies of Obama,
McCain, and Clinton, and the challenges for those who will be
fighting empire under a new administration.
