Globalization Is Collapsing. Brace Yourselves

Interesting article but not one of much substance. The parallels they point out between current events and historical ones are undeniable, but so are the holes in the narrative surrounding the relationship between quality of life and globalization.

To be clear I do not support the Trump administration in any way - but the attitude I see in this article, that the inequalities and issues that lead to fascism and isolationism are small problems to be solved once everything is back in proper order and the dumb rabble has lost momentum, strikes me as a very privileged perspective. If we don't look deeper into why things have reached their current state and only decry the symptoms we're bound to be here again sooner or later.
