GLOBALIZATION AND DEMOCRACY
Second Session: :
April 23, 2004

The second session, held on April 23 rd , focused on the "Winners and Losers in the Global Marketplace". This time, emphasis was placed on live discussion between the students from around the world. Debates centered around globalization; is it good or bad? Who benefits most from globalization in today's world? Discussion was intense and sometimes heated, in particular when Canadians accused Americans of confusing globalization and Americanization!

The final session was held on May 7 with a purpose of defining "Prescriptions for the New Millennium".
