The Future of Global Interdependence in an Era of Economic Nationalism

Are rising geopolitical tensions leading to a fragmentation of the world economy? What is the outlook for globalization as tensions over protectionism and industrial subsidies mount?

Moderated by Doug Irwin, John French Professor of Economics at Dartmouth College, the question spurred a lively discussion before a packed audience between Chad Bown, Reginald Jones Senior Fellow at the Peterson Institute for International Economics; Emily Blanchard, Professor of Economics at the Tuck School of Business, former Chief Economist at the US State Department; and Michele Ruta, Deputy Chief, Strategy and Policy Review Department, International Monetary Fund.

"The Future of Global Interdependence in an Era of Economic Nationalism" was co-sponsored by The Initiative for Global Security at the Dickey Center, the Department of Economics at Dartmouth, and the Tuck School of Business.
