Role of Politics
Trade liberalization was enabled by US
leadership and the trading system is maintained
open by international regime
The globalization and fragmentation of
production is possible because of the low trade
barriers
But all of the above is facilitated by an
international monetary system
We are witnessing the biggest catch-up in
development

58.

Politics and Economics
Politics often trumps economics
But the revenge of the economy comes in the
form of Trump
