| | Therefore, if the global opposition is to develop an alliance of its developing and developed country wings, it must pursue a common global program for working people of all nations that reinforces their national struggles for economic and social equity. | | | With the Japanese economy currently mired in its crisis of finance and consumer confidence, it is an unlikely source of economic stimulus. | | | Assuming a recovery, the U.S. economy is on a trajectory to a debt burden of roughly 40% of GDP within five years. |

| | The idea of a global labor cartel is based on the needs of a modern economy for managing consumer demand to overcome structural overcapacity, which globalization has made a worldwide problem. | | | Investors have yet to link this instability with global economic growth risk even though global economic recession could be the result. | | | The rules of economic democracy mandate that capital in a modern economy is formed from the savings of labor, which in turn depends on rising wages. |

| | The ways in which the world economy functions are determined by both markets and the policies of nation-states, especially those of powerful states; markets and economic forces alone cannot account for the structure and functioning of the global economy. | | | However, in a highly integrated global economy, states continue to use their power and to implement policies to channel economic forces in ways favorable to their own national interests and the interests of their citizenry. | | | Most national economies are still mainly self-contained rather than globalized; globalization is also restricted to a limited, albeit rapidly increasing, number of economic sectors. |

| | Such regimes are "globalizing" influences on both the economy and the environment, and they tend to link these two global systems on the policy side in ways roughly parallel to their inevitable physical and functional interpenetration. | | | Another aspect of the "globalization" of the environment is that many of the environmental concerns arising in different parts of the world involve more than one political jurisdiction; that is, there are cross-border effects of one kind or another. | | | The task of describing the relationship between the global economy and the global environment is both very easy and very difficult. |

| | Sometimes when incorporation into the global economy means that work for wages replaces household work or feudal forms of labor, the result is to liberate the wage earner (the wife, the young girl, the young man, the sharecropper....). | | | The principled justification of globalization begins with the ethical underpinnings of the quasi-mechanism that causes it. | | | Instead of being, as its etymology implies, household management, the economy became the overall international context which provided the necessities of life and defined the social institutions and the worldviews of larger and larger percentages of the world's peoples. |

| | While advocates of globalization gloat that September 11 has silenced the critics of globalization, the emerging global recession will soon put the deep flaws of the global economy back at the center of the global agenda. | | | Thus "the omnipresent centre" of interlocked global finance can deprive hundreds of millions of citizens of their very means of existence or their life-security overnight, with no exposure of the foreign private powers behind the control of the world money supply constitutionally vested in national governments. | | | One of the basic messages of the protesters is that globalization is a race to the bottom, where health and environmental standards are regularly compromised as corporations seek profits. |
