    Globalization and its Discontents

    What if the economic forces meant to unite humanity are instead fueling its unraveling? In Globalization and Its Discontents, Nobel laureate Joseph Stiglitz pulls back the curtain on a world where free-market dogma and unchecked corporate power devour nations, leaving inequality and disillusionment in their wake. As democracy trembles and billions hover on the edge of survival, one question remains: can we reclaim our future before the architects of progress become the undertakers of chaos?
