About the Conference Although the debates on the definition and importance of globalization have been vigorous over time, the pertinent policy questions today are about the benefits of globalization; fair distribution of benefits and the costs of globalization and the maximization of opportunities and minimization of the risks. The discussions in the seminar will try to go deeper into these topics

and provide some theoretical and empirical answers to the question of whether globalization is beneficial for employment, poverty alleviation and income redistribution especially in the developing countries. It is important to address the question of global growth, investment, and employment creation and involve relevant UN bodies, the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the WTO, and the ILO. Our proposal calls for a wider and more democratic participation of researchers in the making of policies to promote a free, equitable and productive global environment. In this seminar we perceive globalization as an overarching process in which simultaneously many different processes take place in many societal domains.
