Justice and Globalization: A Brief Consideration of Thomas L Friedmans The Lexus and the Olive Tree This 4-page graduate book review and reaction paper considers Thomas L Friedman’s recent book, The Lexus and the Olive Tree. It outlines the texts innovation and accessibility as key strengths, and suggests that the author’s juxtaposition of the Cold War and globalization is sometimes a weakness. Specifically, this essay suggests that the book does not necessarily convincingly prove the significance of the oppositions between the two movements. This review suggests that the author found the book interesting because it can be seen as a call to action for urban ministers to help prepare their congregations for social changes and to teach those qualities which Friedman thinks will create a better world under globalization. This review also outlines the aims of the book, and the ways in which the book’s ideas are developed.
