This text explains how various issues in the field of globalization relate to developing countries in general and Muslim countries in particular. It highlights both the positive as well as negative aspects of globalization. The text also highlights the reasons why a very large number of countries, and a large proportion of the world population, view globalization with suspicion despite many of its positive aspects. Another important issue discussed in the text is poverty in Muslim countries. The text provides useful insights into the extent, reasons and the impact of poverty in these countries and gives policy recommendations for its alleviation.
