Registration for the seminar is conditional on approval of the program
director.
Recognizing that liberalization of economies leads to
economic growth, many governments throughout the world have been eager to
embrace globalization. Generally this has led to higher rates of growth.
Indeed, those countries which have avoided globalization have been the slowest
growing group of economies. However, a growing number of individuals - many
within the fastest growing economies, including the developed countries - are
joining the protests against globalization. The objectives of the seminar are
to examine the impact of globalization on labor and capital markets, on economic growth and other relevant aspects.
-What
is "globalization," and what is new and different about it?
-Globalization and labor markets
-Globalization and Economic Growth.
-Globalization and
International Trade: The benefits and potential pitfalls of trading in an
integrated global
market for the company and for the national economy; comparative advantage in the global
marketplace; outsourcing; the dilemma between 'export jobs or import workers;
-Financial business management at the global economy: The risks and benefits of
foreign financial and foreign direct investments; globalization and the
Multi-National Corporations.
-The rules, agreements and institutions
that govern trade
and finance in
the world
markets : the role and rules of the World Trade Organization
(WTO), Regional trade
agreements, including the European Union (EU)
and NAFTA.
The
International Monetary Fund and the World Bank.
