Neo-liberal Globalization and the Scope for Employment Policy

Abstract
John Quiggin examines the options for employment policy in a global economy of unconstrained capital flows. He argues that, as is commonly discussed, globalization is simply the international component of the neo-liberal attack on social development, represented at the national level by policies of free-market reform. An alternative global policy framework, based on international cooperation and active national economic and social policy, is urgently needed.
