Those numbers, however, do not indicate that interviewees have an entirely negative perception of globalization. Indeed, evidence based on surveys that make a distinction between growth and employment impacts of globalization reveals that a majority of respondents in industrialized countries believes in the positive growth effects of globalization that are so often emphasized in the public debate. But they appear to doubt that growth effects also positively affect the majority of citizens. Indeed, recent survey evidence in European countries (Eurobarometer) indicates that in all but one of the 43 countries surveyed, the majority of respondents believed that globalization provides opportunities for economic growth but increases social inequalities. In all countries surveyed, the majority of respondents agreed with the statement that globalization is profitable only for large companies, not for citizens.
