Die Globalisierungsfalle - Der Angriff auf Demokratie und Wohlstand is a 1996 book by Hans-Peter Martin and Harald Schumann which describes possible implications of current trends in globalization. It was published in English as The Global Trap: Civilisation and the Assault on Democracy and Prosperity in 1997 .

In particular, the book is known for defining a possible "20/80 society". In this possible society of the 21st century, 20 percent of the working age population will be enough to keep the world economy going. The other 80 percent live on some form of welfare and are entertained with a concept called "tittytainment", which aims at keeping the 80 percent of frustrated citizens happy with a mixture of deadeningly predictable, lowest common denominator entertainment for the soul, and nourishment for the body.
