Overview

In this documentary on the dangers and prospects of globalization, Nobel Prize winner Joseph E. Stiglitz takes us on a world tour that begins in Gary, his hometown in the suburbs of Chicago. During this journey, from Ecuador to India via Botswana and China, Stiglitz explains that globalization is not just synonymous with environmental disasters or increased pressure on wages and working conditions. There are indeed countries that have mastered globalization and managed to turn it to their advantage. Governments aware of the potential dangers of unregulated markets, attacks on the environment, and the limits of free trade can opt for new paths that could benefit hundreds of millions of people around the world.
