John Redwood has for many years been at the centre of the movement to speed the growth of wealth and income through the rediscovery of private enterprise. For 15 years he has argued for privatization, deregulation and wider ownership, policies he helped to implement as a government adviser, as head of Mrs Thatcher's Policy Unit from 1983 to 1985, and most recently as a government minister. In this book he examines the development and implications of global capitalism: what it should be, what it would mean, and how it can be brought about. He considers the roles technology and the speeding up of communications have to play in the global marketplace, the increasing powers of the East, the reactions of communities trying to retain their identities in the face of the new and influential cultures of free trade, and draws up an agenda for change in those countries freeing themselves from communism. Redwood concludes that global capitalism, with its promise of more jobs and greater prosperity, is the only way forward for the future.
