The Return of the State

ebook
In this provocative book, Adam Harmes reveals how only effective political globalization can balance and hold in check the extremes of global corporations.

Free trade agreements and economic globalization have created a gap between global transnational corporations and governments mired within national boundaries. Large corporations are now operating “above the law.” Return of the State takes us into the corporate boardrooms, government departments and international organizations where a new global compromise is being forged. It argues that political globalization is both necessary and likely, revealing what it will involve, and what it will mean for corporations, civil society and private citizens around the world.

Return of the State is well-researched, hard hitting, controversial and prescient.
