We were in the same workshop. His voice in our discussions was always extremely constructive and gave new perspectives, mainly from the economic point of view. That is why I started to read the last issue of Carnival from his article Globalization and the welfare state. I was not mistaken as before, I have learned a lot from Tadzio. Nevertheless some points in his discourse remain controversial to me.
Globalization brings huge problems along with some advantages.
On this point I cannot disagree with Tadzio. All these aspects cannot be studied apart from each other. And the consequences I mentioned go on the plus side of the globalization. If you ban the flow of capital, you will subsequently have to ban the flow of human ideas. Now, the Chechens use the Internet to circumvent a Russian monopoly for information.
