33. Ben Chu: Exile Economics
Nations are turning away from each other. Faith in globalisaton has been fatally undermined by the pandemic, the energy crisis, surging trade frictions and swelling great power rivalry. So what happens if globalisation fails?
Economist and trusted BBC Verify correspondent Ben Chu picks apart the unfathomably intricate web of interdependence that has come to bind nations together and underlines the dangers of the new push to isolationism, a phenomenon he calls exile economics. Explore this new world in all its promise and peril.
