Right now, economic nationalism and protectionism have come back into vogue. This process has been behind the rise of Nationalist, populist, Eurosceptic parties across Europe, Brexit and the election of Donald Trump in the United States.
This has meant the political parties which advocate these stances (which are on the right and even far-right) have done well at the ballot box while that advocating globalization or “globalism” have been hammered at the ballot box.
This I definitely agree with. The question is how much can newly empowered political factions dismantle globalism?
