The paper addresses the issue of globalization and its effects on world poverty and inequality. The author argues that globalization is not the cause, but neither the solution to world poverty and inequality. The paper then goes on to explore why and how the global economy is stacked against the poor, making globalization asymmetric and concludes with some ideas about a new agenda of good global politics.
