Around the World with Joseph Stiglitz

A film by Jacques Sarasin

[87 min; 2008; English]

In this hard-hitting documentary about the perils and promises of globalization, Nobel laureate Joseph E. Stiglitz takes a tour of the world which starts in his hometown of Gary, Indiana.

As we travel the globe, Stiglitz explains that globalization is not only a story of environmental disaster and pressure on wages and working standards. There are countries which have managed globalization well and have found ways to make it work.

This illuminating documentary - featuring one of the great minds of the twentieth century - is ultimately a message of hope.
