Before we evaluate globalization normatively, it’s worth
investigating its distributive effects.
As globalization increases, who wins and who loses?

We’ll look at differences in income distribution across time and across
space.
Then we’ll consider the role globalization plays in influencing
these changes.

II. Globalization’s Winners & Losers
1. Income Distribution: Cross-Temporal Variation
2. Income Distribution: Cross-Sectional Variation
3. The Role of Globalization

The Recent Increase of American Incomes

Comparative GDP per capita of Selected Countries: 1975-2002
![Page 9: The End of IPE Class 24 – Thursday, 7 May 2009 J A Morrison 1 Adam Smith, Karl Marx, Joseph Schumpeter, JM Keynes.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d795503460f94a5d559/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
So, GDP per capita is rising virtually everywhere.
But how are these gains distributed?

The Gini Index
• Index is one way of capturing the distribution of wealth

Income is uniformly distributed; no inequality
Income is completely concentrated; total inequality

The size of the middle class has shrunk upwards of 10%!
13
![Page 14: The End of IPE Class 24 – Thursday, 7 May 2009 J A Morrison 1 Adam Smith, Karl Marx, Joseph Schumpeter, JM Keynes.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d795503460f94a5d559/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
So, the US has become less equal over time.
Where have the increases in income gone?
Surely the poor must have gotten richer—if only more slowly than
the rich have. 14
![Page 15: The End of IPE Class 24 – Thursday, 7 May 2009 J A Morrison 1 Adam Smith, Karl Marx, Joseph Schumpeter, JM Keynes.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d795503460f94a5d559/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Percentage increase in Average After-Tax Income: 1979-2000
15Source: Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, 2003

So, globalization is increasing American wealth, but those
increases fall into the hands of a very, very small group.
This causes income inequality to rise in the US.
Is globalization causing this rise?16
![Page 17: The End of IPE Class 24 – Thursday, 7 May 2009 J A Morrison 1 Adam Smith, Karl Marx, Joseph Schumpeter, JM Keynes.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d795503460f94a5d559/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Let’s examine the US in a global context.
Keep the following question in mind: is there high correlation
between the level of globalization and the level of income inequality?

What patterns emerge?

![Page 25: The End of IPE Class 24 – Thursday, 7 May 2009 J A Morrison 1 Adam Smith, Karl Marx, Joseph Schumpeter, JM Keynes.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d795503460f94a5d559/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Predictors of Income Inequality
• GDP per Capita– Higher GDP per Capita Greater equality
• Continent: Europe vs Africa– Europe: Most equal– Africa: Least equal
• Level of Globalization– More globalization Greater equality
25
![Page 26: The End of IPE Class 24 – Thursday, 7 May 2009 J A Morrison 1 Adam Smith, Karl Marx, Joseph Schumpeter, JM Keynes.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d795503460f94a5d559/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
But there is a conspicuous exception to these rules: the
United States.
The US has high per capita GDP and high globalization but
considerable income inequality.
What gives? What divides the US from Europe? 26

Transfer payments.
The United States has a much, much smaller “welfare state” than
do the Europeans.

Rodrik: Soften the Blow
• Most developed states have coupled integration with social safety nets– US is the exception to the rule
• Rodrik: this coupling is vital– Normative: spread the gains around– Positive: globalization will cease without this
mollification
(See Rodrik, “Sense and Nonsense”)29

The story here is clear…
30
![Page 31: The End of IPE Class 24 – Thursday, 7 May 2009 J A Morrison 1 Adam Smith, Karl Marx, Joseph Schumpeter, JM Keynes.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d795503460f94a5d559/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
The last 40 years have seen radical increases in the wealth of the richest
Americans.
This has hollowed out the American middle class. And considerably increased income
inequality.
The US government has been reluctant to intervene and either slow these changes or
counter their effects.31
![Page 32: The End of IPE Class 24 – Thursday, 7 May 2009 J A Morrison 1 Adam Smith, Karl Marx, Joseph Schumpeter, JM Keynes.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062407/56649d795503460f94a5d559/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Now we’ll consider whether this is a good thing or a bad thing.

Rodrik: Globalization not a Substitute for Development
• Liberalization can distract from actual development policy– Education, public health, social cohesion, &c
• Liberalization can hurt development– Africa, Aids Drugs, & TRIPS
• “High Tariffs Don’t Mean Low Growth”• Remember: Developed states didn’t follow
the Washington Consensus

Stiglitz• More people are impoverished than before; markets
aren’t any more stable• Globalization benefits developed countries the most
– Terms of trade– Vital products (pharmaceuticals)
• Institutions are designed to serve the developed world
• Institutions have tried to reinvent themselves, but they have failed

Williamson: Convergence with Inequality
• Examines influence of globalization on income inequality within countries and between North & South
• Globalization causes convergence between N & S
• But it also exacerbates inequality within the N• This produces potent political backlash• Does globalization sow the seeds of its own
destruction?39

Freeman: It’s not So Bad
• Investigates apparent immiseration of low-skilled labor in North– US: lower wages– Europe: higher unemployment
• Results– Demand for unskilled labor is down all around– Technology and other factors matter more than
trade

Krugman, et al: Bad Jobs are Jobs
• Rural poverty vs “jobs” in export industry• “biggest beneficiaries are…Third World
workers”• “A policy of good jobs in principle, but no jobs
in practice, might assuage our consciences, but it is no favor to its alleged beneficiaries.”

Another Perspective• Postwar order was designed to prevent WWIII
– Lesson from Versailles: create integrated order acceptable to major powers
This order has been remarkable successful!
• Unclear, new-fangled model for North/South– Development was much lower priority than reconstruction– Self-determination: political independence guilt free
economic domination
We need to rethink our model of int’l organization. (PS 0456!!!)
