Globalisation Laid Bare (Gibson Square, 2009), from the Industry and Parliament Trust and introduced by Richard Branson, collects essays on globalization written after the 2008 financial crisis. Fourteen contributors from business, economics and politics take part, among them Alan Greenspan, Amartya Sen, Vince Cable, Jim O'Neill on the BRIC economies, Clare Short, Vandana Shiva, Stuart Rose and Peter Mandelson. They debate trade and protectionism, investing in China, small businesses, sustainability, corporate responsibility and global taxation, with Shiva and Short questioning globalization's social costs.
