Summary
A bold new account of the state of globalization today—and what its collapse might mean for the world economy
After the Cold War, globalization accelerated at breakneck speed.
Manufacturing, transport, and consumption defied national borders,
companies made more money, and consumers had access to an
ever-increasing range of goods. But in recent years, a profound shift
has begun to take place.
Business executives and politicians
alike are realising that globalization is no longer working. Supply
chains are imperilled, Russia has been expelled from the global economy
after its invasion of Ukraine, and China is using these fissures to
leverage a strategic advantage. Given these pressures, what will the
future of our world economy look like?
In this groundbreaking
account, Elisabeth Braw explores the collapse of globalization and the
profound challenges it will bring to the West. Drawing on interviews
with prominent executives and policymakers from around the world, Braw
poses the difficult questions all businesses and economies will face—and
traces the intricate story of globalization from the exuberant ’90s to
the embattled present.
