Riassunto

Globalization of Concern: Vol 1, is a book that addresses the ongoing discussion on the concept and effects of globalization, particularly on the socioeconomic life of the less developed countries like Tanzania.

After going through the book, the reader will realize that globalization is yet another form of veiled imperialism aimed at, not only impoverishing the destitute, but also destroying the ethos of human beings.

In a nutshell, the author strongly advocates for an alternative and better model of globalization, which will change this world into a harmonious, peaceful and livable planet.

This resourceful book is highly recommended as a textbook for ethics studies in higher institutions of learning, to college and university students, as well as the general public.
