Edward Goldberg (edwardgoldberg.info ) is one of the leading experts on the interplay between global politics and global economics. Tom Friedman of the New York Times tweeted out about his new book, CHECK OUT EDWARD GOLDBERG'S NEW BOOK ON GLOBALIZATION. VERY SMART ANALYST! Goldberg spent his entire life moving between the worlds of academia, international trade and trade finance, he has a unique and realistic understanding of globalization and international-political economics. He is a Adjunct Professor at New York University's Center for Global Affairs specializing in international political economy and a scholarly practitioner at the Zicklin School of Business, Baruch College, City University of New York (CUNY) .In his book, Why Globalization Works for America: How Nationalst Trade Policies Are Destroying our Country, he write, "Globalization is here to stay and “all the king’s horses and all the king’s men can’t put the Humpty Dumpty of yesterday’s nonglobalized world back together again,” The growing economic inequality in the United States often attributed to globalism is really a political failure, Goldberg goes on to say, it didn’t have to be this way. When previous revolutionary business changes upended the American economy, government responded. The industrialization of the second half of the 1800s gave us robber barons and monopolies, which in turn triggered progressive reforms to ease gross inequality, such as the graduated income tax, direct election of Senators and the secret ballot. The misery created by the Great Depression led to another series of reforms, such as Social Security, the Tennessee Valley Authority, and the Security and Exchange Commission.This time, a polarized political system has failed to produce solutions, Goldberg writes. Indeed, the candidate who talked most about the growing political divide in 2016, Donald Trump, has done nothing to address the problem but has made matters worse by stoking the fears of the white working class and instituting new tariffs that complicate the global supply chain, which in turn, trigger escalating tariffs by other nations.His book, The Joint Ventured Nation: Why America Needs A New Foreign Policy, was published on October 18, 2016 by Skyhorse Publishing. The book argues ta specialist in international political economy at New York University and a scholarly practitioner at the Zicklin School of Business, Baruch College, City University of New York (CUNY) .hat America’s fate is now interconnected to the other major industrial countries while its foreign policy has not adapted to this reality. That essentially America is no longer the indispensible nation but now is the indispensible partner. The book is the antidote to the foreign policy of the Trump Administration.The reviews of The Joint Venture Nation have been exceptional with various scholars in the field praising it with the following comments:“Edward Goldberg gives us a cogent account of how we arrived in this new era when all the major nations, like it or not, are joint venture partners with one another. Critics who hope to roll back the tide of globalization are the modern equivalent of King Canute. This book is a must read for anyone interested in 21st-century US foreign policy, the emergent global economy, and the political challenges we face both at home and abroad.”—William M. LeoGrande, Professor Government and Dean Emeritus, School of Public Affairs, American University and co-author of Back Channel to Cuba“I found the historical context from which Edward Goldberg developed his argument for joint ventures among nations and economies in a post-Westphalian world to be fascinating and compelling.”—Wayne Porter, CAPT, USN (ret.) and co-author of A National Strategic Narrative“As globalization is both feared and misunderstood, Edward Goldberg’s timely book offers lucid and original analysis, placing globalization within a larger historical, geopolitical and economic context. Scholarly, yet witty and concise, this should be on every US and European politician’s reading list in the coming year.”—Dr. Irene Finel-Honigman, Adjunct Professor of International Affairs, School of International and Public Affairs, Columbia University and author of A Cultural History of Finance“The well thought-through discussion of why United States foreign policy is trapped in a world that is attributable to the failure to understand the far-reaching implications of how economic globalization is trumping political sovereignty. Discussing how to bring our foreign policy into the 21st century—reflecting the new reality of a globalized economic world—the author also addresses how the United States should deal with countries not part of that world, for example, Russia. A must read.”—George Schwab, President Emeritus, National Committee on American Foreign Policy“An innovative approach to the 21st-century world, and the US role in particular, creatively integrating the dynamics of the contemporary global economy and classical considerations of nation-state interests.”—Bruce W. Jentleson, Henry Kissinger Chair, Kluge Center, Library of Congress and co-author of The End of Arrogance: America in the Global Competition of Ideas.He is currently writing his next book, The Globalization Manifesto: Why The Counter Revolution Against Globalization Is Doomed To Fail.
