Globalisation is Good is a 2003 documentary film written and presented by Johan Norberg and produced by Freeform Productions for British Channel 4. The film is based on Norberg's much celebrated book In Defense of Global Capitalism (published in 2001) that shows the impact of globalisation, and the consequences of its absence. In the film, Norberg travels to countries like Taiwan, Vietnam and Kenya to promote global capitalism and to prove why he feels protestors entering the anti-globalisation movement are ignorant and dangerously wrong.
The film was released on DVD in November 2006 by the Swedish think tank Timbro.
