Globalization; Political economy

Series: Field Notes

Globalisation as we know it is over. Governments continue to embrace regressive industrial policies, geopolitical tensions are rising higher and higher, and resurgent far-right movements are threatening the foundations of contemporary democracies. In this book, Jamie Merchant traces the roots of this decline beyond the oft-blamed failures of the post-Cold War era. Instead, Merchant argues that the great political and economic changes of the last decade are due not to globalisation but to the long-term decay of the market-based economic order. By historicizing this period of globalisation and decline, Endgame illuminates a path forward for both the global economy and international politics.

Reviews for Endgame: Economic Nationalism and Global Decline

"""A comprehensive, clear, and strikingly insightful overview of important trends of our day: resurgent economic nationalism, new forms of exploitation and imperialism, the mainstreaming of the far-right, the continuing failure to address ever-worsening environmental threats, a metastasizing shadow financial sphere, and so on. Merchant argues compellingly that these social pathologies are rooted in the stagnation of the global capitalist economy. A brilliant book.""--Tony Smith, author of ""Technology and Capital in the Age of Lean Production"" and ""Beyond Liberal Egalitarianism"""
