(CALGARY, Canada) Former corporate hotel executive Hugo Bonjean's traditional views of the world changed when he encountered extreme poverty and extravagant wealth side-by-side while traveling on business through South America. He witnessed many third-world cultures pushed into a form of economic slavery because of globalization. Many western companies have amassed enormous profits, but abuse human labor to achieve their monetary goal. As Bonjean traveled throughout South America, he realized that the rest of world only sees the final product of globalization and not thepoverty-ridden people involved in the process it takes to reach it.
People all over the world constantly struggle to integrate a reality burdened with despair and inequality into a harmonious and happy life. Offering guidance to this complicated moral issue, author and corporate executive Bonjean brings us In the Eyes of Anahita (Synergy Books and Eagle Vision Publishing Ltd., October 2004, ISBN: 0-9747644-9-3, $14.85), an inspiring story about his awakening to the imbalance in the world as we know it. Bonjean has worked relentlessly to create a plan of action that expresses the importance of making corporations socially and environmentally responsible.
