His studies have found that people are susceptible to what he calls \u201cglobaloney,\u201d the idea that the world is more connected and interdependent than the data show it to be.<\/p>\n<p>According to Ghemawat, this globaloney can lead businesses and governments to overlook opportunities for positive change, such as practices that address environmental issues or measures that could rehabilitate troubled European economies.<\/p>\n<p>Ghemawat was named by Business Insider as one of the <em>\u201c54 smart thinkers everyone should follow on twitter\u201d<\/em> and <em>The Economist<\/em> said that his book, World 3.0 , \u201cshould be read by anyone who wants to understand the most important economic development of our time.\u201d His website, Ghemawat.com, includes a number of resources such as his blog, information about his books, and videos of his past appearances.<\/p>\n<p>Part of the gap between popular perception of the world\u2019s interconnectedness and the reality reflected by data is the difference in perspective from one country to the next. To address those differences, Ghemawat\u2019s website hosts over 200 custom maps describing how the world looks from the perspectives of nearly 150 different countries. Visitors can see how the world looks based on a variety of factors such as each country\u2019s nominal GDP or the number of Columbia-originated international telephone calling minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Ghemawat examines a number of ways that globalization can affect countries, individuals, and markets. In a blog post citing a study showing that growing Dutch roses produces six times as much greenhouse gas as their Kenyan counterparts, Ghemawat writes that \u201cglobalization has an impact on the environment, but it is a mixed one and generally far less scary than many people think.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>To find out whether there was any truth behind the fear that increased global competition led to markets dominated by a smaller number of more powerful competitors, Ghemawat examined data from 11 industries and found that the market share of their top five firms has remained relatively unchanged over the past 30 years.<\/p>\n<p>In an article co-written for <em>Fortune<\/em> with Stijn Vanormelingen, Ghemawat suggested that a fear of globalization was encouraging trade protectionism and holding back Spain\u2019s economy. \u201cForget the idea that closing the borders would help,\u201d they wrote, outlining four ways that Spain could ultimately recover. Their article concluded that \u201cthe restructuring of the Southern European economies will not happen until firms become more international, more innovative, more high tech, and bigger.\u201d[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;full_width_background&#8221; full_screen_row_position=&#8221;middle&#8221; bg_color=&#8221;#1f1f1f&#8221; scene_position=&#8221;center&#8221; video_bg=&#8221;use_video&#8221; enable_video_color_overlay=&#8221;true&#8221; video_overlay_color=&#8221;#0029c1&#8243; text_color=&#8221;light&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; top_padding=&#8221;50&#8243; bottom_padding=&#8221;50&#8243; id=&#8221;pankaj-ghemawat-publications&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; shape_divider_position=&#8221;bottom&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221;][vc_column column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/1&#8243; tablet_width_inherit=&#8221;default&#8221; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221;][vc_row_inner column_margin=&#8221;default&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221;][vc_column_inner column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; column_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243; tablet_width_inherit=&#8221;default&#8221; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221;][image_with_animation image_url=&#8221;53&#8243; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221; animation=&#8221;Fade In From Left&#8221; img_link_large=&#8221;yes&#8221; border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; box_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; max_width=&#8221;100%&#8221; delay=&#8221;150&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; column_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243; tablet_width_inherit=&#8221;default&#8221; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221;][vc_column_text]\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">World 3.0<\/h2>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">Global Prosperity and How to Achieve It<\/h4>\n[divider line_type=&#8221;No Line&#8221; custom_height=&#8221;30&#8243;][\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]In <em>World 3.0<\/em>, Pankaj Ghemawat provides a fresh look at cross-border integration and its implications.
