Este libro, editado por Matthew J. Gibney, reúne a un amplio elenco de especialistas de diferentes nacionalidades, incluyendo a Susan George, Noam Chomsky, Joseph E. Stiglitz, Vandana Shiva, Homi K. Bhabha y K. Anthony Appiah. En él, se exponen las falacias que se esconden tras el término globalización, argumentando que no se trata de un fenómeno que abarca todo ni que busca beneficiar a todos los habitantes de la tierra, sino más bien un proceso sistemático de exclusión que permite a la economía de mercado mundial quedarse con lo mejor e ignorar el destino de numerosos grupos sociales y económicos que permanecen en la pobreza. Los autores exigen que los cambios tecnológicos y el desarrollo económico vayan parejos con un respeto universal por los derechos humanos, para poder proteger a los individuos y a las sociedades de la explotación, la violencia y la injusticia.

Avram Noam Chomsky is an American intellectual, philosopher, linguist, political activist, and social critic. Sometimes called "the father of modern linguistics", Chomsky is also a major figure in analytic philosophy and one of the founders of the field of cognitive science. He is a laureate professor of linguistics at the University of Arizona and an institute professor emeritus at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Among the most cited living authors, Chomsky has written more than 150 books on topics such as linguistics, war, and politics. In addition to his work in linguistics, since the 1960s, Chomsky has been an influential voice on the American Left as a consistent critic of the foreign policy of the United States, contemporary capitalism, and corporatocracy.
