Grave new world : the end of globalization, the return of history / Stephen D. King. - 304 pages ; 20 cm
Originally published: 2017.
This title provides a controversial look at the end of globalization and what it means for prosperity, peace, and the global economic order. Globalization, long considered the best route to economic prosperity, is not inevitable. With disappointing growth rates across the Western world, nations are no longer willing to sacrifice national interests for global growth; nor are their leaders able to sell the idea of pursuing a global agenda of prosperity to their citizens. Combining historical analysis with current affairs, economist Stephen D. King provides a provocative and engaging account of why globalization is being rejected, what a world ruled by rival states with conflicting aims might look like, and how the pursuit of nationalist agendas could result in a race to the bottom.
