With the emergence of global data networks, in conjunction with educational investments made by developing countries, the movement to export work offshore in the United States has experienced a notable rise in popularity. An entire industry has grown up around IT Enabled Services (ITES) and Business Process Outsourcing (BPO). In this book, Reverend Blunden will explain who's going offshore, who's helping them do it, and why. In addition to presenting the pro-globalization stance that Corporate America espouses, Reverend Blunden will give voice to dissenting opinions that have been largely ignored by the media. This book offers an enlightening and detailed analysis of the phenomenon of offshore outsourcing, one that will expose the reader to the underlying core values of our economic and political system. Blunden has been directly affected by offshoring, and is writing from the programmers' point of view, for the programmer. While passionate about the topic, he and the editor are ensuring that the book presents both sides of the issue, and will appeal to people on both sides.
