Local traditions[edit]
What this article neglects to mention is Friedman's emphasis on the importance of maintaining a country's local traditions along with globalization, a process he describes as 'glocalization'. He at heart is anything but the apologist for imperialism that he's often described as.Alloco1
To much emphasis on a small part of the book[edit]
The Golden Arches theory is the bulk of this article. The book is about a lot more than that. --rogerd 17:09, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
Focus on the book itself?[edit]
Yeah... I agree. Arches, smarches, i want to hear about the book itself. which struggle prevails? how does he characterize each one? etc? Lequis (talk) 03:16, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
Written like an advertisement[edit]
Phrases like "Friedman leads the reader on an international quest for a new understanding" and "Friedman... [introduces] colorful new terms" is unacceptable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Spartan2600 (talk • contribs) 07:49, 10 May 2012 (UTC)
Agreed. Thank you for pointing that out. I have changed the wording. --Harizotoh9 (talk) 23:27, 13 August 2014 (UTC)
