Episode Description

Host Stephanie Flanders speaks with journalist and author Ben Chu to unpack his latest book, Exile Economics: What Happens if Globalisation Fails. As President Donald Trump calls for the US to break its dependence on foreign imports and bring all production “back home,” Chu pulls back the curtain on what abandoning globalization would actually look like—not in theory, but in the messy, interconnected reality of the 21st century.
