GLOBALIZATION LECTURE

You are invited to the next "Leading Edge" Lecture: MAKING GLOBALIZATION WORK
by Joseph E. Stiglitz
Swayduck Auditorium, 65 Fifth Avenue (btw. 13th St & 14th St)
Tuesday, December 5th, 2006, 8:00 - 9:30 p.m.

In Making Globalization Work, Nobel Prize winning economist Joseph E. Stiglitz “puts forward radical new ways of dealing with the crippling indebtedness of developing countries, recommends a new system of global reserves to overcome international financial instability, and provides new proposals for addressing the current impasse in dealing with global warming. …He argues convincingly for the reform of global institutions … as well as for international trade agreements and intellectual property laws to make these institutions truly capable of responding to the problems of our age. Throughout, Stiglitz makes a compelling case that treating developing countries more fairly is not only morally right but is ultimately to the advantage of the developed world too.” (W.W.
