Home some three billion people, these twenty-four countries have seen incomes   53   at an average rate of five percent—compared to two percent in developed countries.

Those who   54   globalization claim that economies in developing countries wilt from new opportunities for small and home-based businesses.   55   , small farmers in Brazil who produce nuts that would originally have sold only in   56   open-air markets can now promote their goods worldwide by the Internet.

Critics take a different view, believing that economic globalization is actually   57   gap between the rich and poor.

For example, Indian craftsmen who currently seem to benefit from globalization because they are able to   60   their products may soon face fierce competition that could put them out of   61   . When large-scale manufacturers start to produce the same goods, or when superstores like Wal-Mart move in, these small businesses will not be able to   62   and will be crowded out.

One thing is certain about Globalization—there is no   63   . Advances in technology combined with more open policies have already created an interconnected world. The   64   now is finding a way to create a kind of globalization that works for the benefit of all.
