Globalisation is Good - Johan Norberg on Globalization
"The world is an unequal and unjust place, in which some are born into wealth and some into hunger and misery. To explore why, in this controversial Channel Four documentary the young Swedish writer Johan Norberg takes the viewers on a journey to Taiwan, Vietnam, Kenya and Brussels to see the impact of globalisation, and the consequences of its absence. It makes the case that the problem in the world is not too much capitalism, globalisation and multinationals, but too little."
Norberg is not a consistent defender of individual rights and capitalism--his views on democracy are particularly mixed. This is nevertheless a powerful and fascinating film.
