From global to local: The making of things and the end of globalisation / Livesey. Finbarr 2017  Book
Livesey. Finbar Book
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication London, Profile Books, 2017.
Description ix, 210pBlack spine
Summary/Abstract From Global to Local shows how the world trading structure has already begun to shift, with irrevocable consequences for the global economy. Volatile oil prices, the pressures of sustainability and the availability of new technologies - such as 3D printing and automation - mean that companies, from General Electric to Apple, are beginning to move production away from distant countries and back home. If robots can make everything, why would companies use Chinese workers? Power is shifting, trade is shrinking and making things is revolutionising. Finbarr Livesey explores the making of this new world economic order, revealing the processes that lie behind it and showing how no one will be left untouched by its arrival.
