Globalization
Description
Global Envision takes the global free market system as a starting point for reducing world poverty. Providing the poor with opportunities to improve their own lives is the catalyst for creating a more fair, hopeful, and stable future. We support economic development and responsible free markets as the most reliable and sustainable strategies for global poverty alleviation.
About Us
When it comes down to economic models for the 21st century, in the words of Hernando De Soto, “capitalism is the only game in town.” Workers in emerging markets, writes Thomas Friedman, are those who “may not like a lot of things about globalization but who know that the alternatives are a lot, lot worse.” Is this the best we can do?
Global Envision believes that the more that we understand about the free market system, how it affects us and our neighbors all over the globe, and how it can benefit us all, the better our chances that the global economy will thrive for the prosperity of all. By featuring educational resources, articles, stories and opinions about how economic policy and development can be made more inclusive, Global Envision provides models of how free markets can be a positive force in creating a more fair, just, and stable future.
