SUMMARY:The End of Globalization?
DESCRIPTION:Our Oct. 7 Great Decisions Lecture Series will ask the question if we are at the end of globalization. With David Dollar of Brookings. \nAbout this event\nA recent survey of nearly 20\,000 people in 25 countries reveals mixed enthusiasm for international trade and the globalization of goods and services\, with slightly less than half of those surveyed agreeing that globalization is a net-positive for their country. \nWith an uptick in protectionist trade rhetoric and reconsideration of globally integrated networks of goods and services\, what do the trends and forecasts indicate about the future of globalization? Is globalization really at an end\, or is it in need of a refresh? \nDavid Dollar\, noted economist and senior fellow in the John L. Thornton China Center at the Brookings Institution\, will offer his insights in this virtual discussion jointly presented by the US Heartland China Association and the International Relations Council. \n  \nRegister Today.\nOctober 7th\, 2021\n6:30 – 7:30 p.m. CT
