Globalization in its current form cannot deliver the benefits expected of it. Civil society, particularly in developing countries, must ensure that it does. Globalization as practiced today is a kind of apartheid. It is a misleading term and it skirts the issue to talk only in terms of “sharing better the benefits of globalization” and helping the “marginalized”. This presumes that globalization only produces benefits, but some gain more than others. In reality, globalization creates benefits for some, losses for others, and worse, some of the benefits of the gainers generate losses for the losers.
