In World 3.0, Pankaj Ghemawat provides a fresh look at cross-border integration and its implications. He demonstrates why integration and regulation must be seen as complementary. And he offers great recommendations that should inspire all stakeholders in times of major global challenges. A must-read.”
--Pascal Lamy, Director-General of the World Trade Organization (WTO).

We are currently stuck in World 2.0,’ a world in which the further impact of global integration is seen as limited. Professor Ghemawat artfully proposes how we can move to World 3.0,’ in which openness leads to wider technological, cultural, and social benefits. The transfer of knowledge through people, trade, or investments could have a significant impact on growth. This is an interesting and timely argument that deserves careful consideration.”
--Dr. Supachai Panitchpakdi, Secretary-General of the UN Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD)

World 3.0 is a comprehensive framework for thinking about globalization, market failures, and market integration. Ghemawat sets a visionary but pragmatic agenda for senior managers, businesses, and governments. His views about managing capital reversals and imbalances while exploiting the large untapped potential of globalization are particularly relevant.”
--Michel Camdessus, former Managing Director, International Monetary Fund

This book deserves to be read widely. It establishes through the type of clinical analysis on which Ghemawat has built his reputation as a global strategist that the current world we live in is, at best, semiglobalized, and then proceeds to spell out the implications of such a world for individuals, businesses, and governments.”
--Ratan Tata, Chairman, Tata Group

This is the right book at the right time. After the most severe economic crisis since the Great Depression, many leaders are looking for ways to make the global economy more stable and sustainable. World 3.0 offers well-reasoned strategies for achieving that.”
-- Peter Löscher, President and Chief Executive Officer Siemens AG

Pankaj Ghemawat has provided an impressive and comprehensive analysis of the world’s situation in times of globalization and strong economic and social imbalances. His book contributes to fostering the mind-set that will enable us to reshape this world in a sustainable way. If we believe in World 3.0,’ we will be able to build it.”
--Mohammed Yunus, founder of Grameen Bank and recipient of the Nobel Prize for Peace
