Benjamin Barber talked about his book Jihad vs. McWorld: How Globalism and Tribalism Are Reshaping the World, published by Ballantine Books. He said that in the wake of the recent terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon the U.S. and Western nations need to re-examine their policies of globalism and its effect on the rest of the world. He stated that the U.S. in particular needs to be more flexible in adapting to the global policies of other countries, instead of insisting that other governments adapt to ours. After the presentation, the author answered questions from members of the audience. close
