摘要：The very word globalization triggers often highly polarized views. For some it
is an apocalyptic demon devouring the environment, homogenizing cultures
and values and subverting equity, justice and common decency. For others
it is the ultimate evolution of the market, freeing multinational corporations
from government red tape and promising previously unimaginable economic
development which could overcome poverty and scythe through what are
seen as outdated, suffocating values.
