The Globalization Paradox, by Dani Rodrik, is about problems that arise with trade and labor in the global economy and how he believes they should be handled. This book could be purchased for $10.41 in the paperback edition and had 368 pages. The book has an average rating of 4.4 stars on Amazon, and according to WorldCat it is currently held by 777 different libraries. and is classified as an Economics book. Pirate Politics cost $25.94 on Amazon and consisted of 240 pages, however it had no customer reviews. It is currently held at 140 libraries. Finally, Off the Networkis 224 pages, costs $18.40 and also had no customer reviews. 265 different libraries have the book.
Both Pirate Politics and Off the Network had no reviews on Google from users or critics. The Globalization Paradox is clearly the most popular of the three, but still had only 14 reviews. I found similar results on Library Thing, where Pirate Politics only had one review, a 3 star rating, and Off the Network had no reviews. The Globalization Paradox, on the other hand has been read by 83 members and had an average rating of 4.25 stars. The recommendations given for this book seemed like the most interesting to me. As an economics major, the subject matter of this book was very appealing to me. Because of the interesting topic and the positive reviews I have decided to choose The Globalization Paradox.
I found reviews for the book on two journals, the ASEAN Economic Bulletin and Book News Inc. I also found a review from Ergys Islamaj, a professor of Economics at Vassar College. I could not find any books written by any of the reviewers.
