Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This in-depth study of globalization's effect on Atlantic Canada considers not simply the gross national product and its measures of the economic trends of the corporate elite, but the social indices that track globalization's impact on working people, the working poor, people on social assistance, and the elderly. Healthcare, education, the environment, and the local economy demonstrate the affluency (or desperation) of communities, and it is argued that these measures reflect the devastating effects of free trade and privatization in Atlantic Canada. A positive vision for the Canadian and international economy that emphasizes human need over corporate greed is outlined to promote social change.
