Overview

This volume is concerned with the complexities of the relationship between globalization and different groups of consumers in developing countries. Globalization, it is argued, can yield frustration and disappointment as well as welfare gains for consumers; it may, but does not necessarily, displace local products and via the rapid recent expansion if the mass media, it offers policymakers new opportunities to deal with acute social problems.

Author Biography: Jeffrey James is Professor of Development Economics at Tilburg University in The Netherlands.
