En esta crítica incisiva, Dani Rodrik combina el relato histórico con astutas observaciones que cuestionan la creencia de que el avance de la globalización es inevitable --e inevitablemente positivo-- y argumenta que la globalización va acompañada necesariamente de tensiones muy graves.La paradoja de la globalización plantea un tema que ha adquirido, a raíz de la crisis del euro, una candente actualidad. Se trata del conflicto entre decisiones democráticas a escala de cada nación y decisiones tecnocráticas a escala supranacional. En el libro, el autor presenta un argumento a favor de un modelo de globalización atemperado, que sea respetuoso con las democracias nacionales y que esté fundamentado en un entramado muy elemental de reglas internacionales.Ahora que nos enfrentamos a unos desafíos globales tanto en el comercio, como en las finanzas como en los mercados laborales, la bien fundamentada propuesta de Rodrik muestra el camino hacia una prosperidad equilibrada y sostenible.
