世界是平的: 把握這個趨勢, 在 21世紀才有競爭力

內容簡介

內容簡介 A New Edition of the Phenomenal #1 Bestseller"One mark of a great book is that it makes you see things in a new way, and Mr. Friedman certainly succeeds in that goal," the Nobel laureate Joseph E. Stiglitz wrote in The New York Times reviewing The World Is Flat in 2005. In this new edition, Thomas L. Friedman includes fresh stories and insights to help us understand the flattening of the world. Weaving new information into his overall thesis, and answering the questions he has been most frequently asked by parents across the country, this third edition also includes two new chapters--on how to be a political activist and social entrepreneur in a flat world; and on the more troubling question of how to manage our reputations and privacy in a world where we are all becoming publishers and public figures.The World Is Flat 3.0 is an essential update on globalization, its opportunities for individual empowerment, its achievements at lifting millions out of poverty, and its drawbacks--environmental, social, and political, powerfully illuminated by the Pulitzer Prize--winning author of The Lexus and the Olive Tree.

各界推薦

各界推薦 【94年7月誠品選書】哥倫布之後人類知道世界是圓的，本書所謂世界是平的，是回收一個過時的觀念來說明現狀，指的是政治經濟上的撤除藩籬加上科技進步所創造的溝通無礙。副標誆稱這是一部二十一世紀的簡史，事實上不是歷史，就是現在。寫過《從貝魯特到耶路撒冷》、《了解全球化：凌志汽車與橄欖樹》，紐約時報專欄作家湯瑪斯．弗里曼是新聞界最有洞見的一枝筆，他舉出了十股造成世界平坦化的重要力量，點醒讀者眼前的潮流，對一個國家、一個公司、一個社群或個人而言，到底意味著什麼？世界變得平坦，是不是迫使我們跑得更快才能擁有一席之地？平坦化的世界裡，政府組織和社會機制該如何適應？在他稱之為「全球化第3.0版」的演變中，撼動世界的不再是跨國公司或國際組織，人在新的世界運作中重新成為歷史的主角。
