Specific Study

The quote below comes from the October 10th edition of the WSJ. The article by Bob Davis is titled: "IMF Fuels Critics of Globalization." I think this is a really specific example of the type of study the Ng would like completed for the final paper.

"The IMF researchers separated "globalization" into three components -- technology, foreign investment and trade -- and looked at how changes in each of the three corresponded with changes in income inequality globally. According to the results, technology and foreign investment deepened income inequality, while trade diminished it. Overall, globalization has contributed "moderately to net changes in income shares," the IMF found."
