Over time, globalization has evolved into a shared journey of humanity, involving entrepreneurship, innovation, business and policy advances around the world. This book explores the link between globalization and development, and reveals the dynamics, strengths and weaknesses, trends in and implications of globalization in Asia and Africa. Presenting papers by respected experts in the field, it shares essential insights into the status quo of globalization processes and structures, identifies the opportunities and threats that globalization faces, and sheds light on the path to global peace. Topics range from using fair-trade practices to compensate for the impacts of globalization; to lessons learned for tomorrow from Tunisia, Morocco and Jordan; as well as emergent topics such as global entrepreneurship capacity and developing the Chinese economy overseas
