The form that globalisation takes is influenced by many factors today. The increasing role of information technology in all aspects of our lives is a major factor in the changes that are happening in globalisation today and which will happen in the future. Marc Levinson describes the historical development of globalisation and the factors which were significant in each of its historical phases. He argues that future globalisation will be information based and that this poses challenges to its governance.

Marc Levinson is a historian, author and economist. He has written widely on trade, globalisation, finance and business, working as journalist, including as fiancé and economics editor of the Economist, in the finance sector and as a senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations.
