Harvard Law Review - THE END OF THE GLOBALIZATION DEBATE: A REVIEW ESSAY by Robert Howse asserts that the globalization debate has ended and that there is no more antiglobalization "side" to the argument:
"Today the protesters who march against globalization are not marching in favor of the state. Instead, they are mostly advocating a set of values and causes that transcend state boundaries and that require global action."
The article reviews four books that contribute to the globalization debate:

- IN DEFENSE OF GLOBALIZATION. By Jagdish Bhagwati. New York: Oxford Univ. Press. With new afterword, 2007. Pp. xiii, 330. $16.95.
