Notes from Week 6: Globalization: An Intro:

The Venn Weekly: BREAKING UP THE BEHEMOTH Presidential hopeful, Senator Elizabeth Warren, has led the way in calling for the break up of big tech companies like Facebook. They have, she argues, accrued “too much power — over our economy, our society and our democracy”. Facebook co-founder, Chris Hughes, agrees with her. In this episode, Hughes sets out his case for breaking up the social media behemoth he helped build, as he warns against the “dangers of Facebook’s monopoly” and Zuckerberg’s "unprecedented and un-American" personal power.

Notes from Week 6: Globalization: An Intro:

The Venn Deep Dive. Podcast 1: GLOBALIZATION: NO PLACE TO HIDE Globalization is the transfer of goods, people, capital, and information across borders. Over time new technologies have expedited this movement, raising the competition from emerging economies like China, and disrupting traditional industries like auto and steel. It is often blamed for many ills of the modern world: from inequality, job losses and the depression of wages, to social polarization and the recent surge in populism around the world. But is the growing backlash against globalization justified? In this episode, Professor Pankaj Ghemawat debunks the many myths and misconceptions surrounding globalization and lays out the case for why the costs are less and the gains are more than many may think.

Pankaj Ghemawat, professor at NYU Stern and IESE business schools, debunks common misconceptions about the current state and extent of globalization. (Hint: the world is not nearly as globalized as people think.) He also discusses how popular reactions in Europe and the U.S. against globalization recently could affect the global economy, and how companies will need to adapt to the new reality. Ghemawat is the author of several books on globalization, including “World 3.0” and most recently “The Laws of Globalization and Business Applications.”

Pub date: 2019-04-04

Notes from Week 6: Globalization: An Intro:

The Venn Deep Dive. Podcast 2: THE FUTURE AS SEEN THROUGH A VIDEO GAME What will the world of trade look like in 15 years time? Given the pace of technological change and its impact on globalization, it’s pretty hard to tell. But, for an indication of the direction in which we are headed, a good place to look to is the digitalization of the global economy. And what better example of this new frontier of globalization than Fortnite - the video game played by nearly 250 million players around the world. The digital transactions these players make, together with other data flows, don’t always show up in the balance of trade figures, but they represent trillions of dollars of cross border value. In this podcast, Stephonomics discusses what videos games like Fortnite can tell us about trade, jobs, and the world economy in the digital age.

Fortnite may be the biggest video-game phenomenon with more than 200 million registered players. It's also a good place to start if you want to understand globalization -- and the new directions the global economy is taking today. 

 

In the premiere episode of Stephanomics, hosted by Bloomberg Economics head Stephanie Flanders, reporter Shawn Donnan explains how Fortnite has not only bypassed the U.S.-China trade war, but is also a key example of what's happening in the new digital economy. Then Stephanie talks with economist Richard Baldwin about how technology is crossing borders and changing the labor market.

Episode: How Trade Helps Explain Inequality
Pub date: 2019-04-11

Notes from Week 6: Globalization: An Intro:

The Venn Deep Dive. Podcast 3: WINNERS AND LOSERS How much is trade responsible for rising income inequality in the U.S., compared to other factors? This is a question that has of late been keeping many economists busy as they’ve sought to figure out the social, as well as economic, impact of global trade. What it comes down to is this: the U.S. has a competitive advantage over other countries in higher skilled industries, such as software and engineering, but tends to import goods in industries demanding lower skilled labor - think shoes and textiles. This means that expanding global trade increases the divergence between these two types of workers and, in so doing, increases income inequality. But, it’s not that simple, since trade also helps to provide consumers with lower-priced, imported goods (hence the prolific ‘Made in China’ tag). As such, it can be seen to mitigate other inequalities. Still confused? We were too until we listened to this episode by The Indicator.

Trade makes for peaceful relationships between nations, but gains for consumers and workers aren't spread evenly.

Notes from Week 6: Globalization: An Intro:

The Venn 2020: WHO IS SENATOR CORY BOOKER? “America is at a crossroads”. According to Former Mayor of Newark and current U.S. Senator, Cory Booker, we face a descent into tribalism that is couched in fear and an us-versus-them, zero-sum style of politics. He thinks he is the person to fix this and re-inspire the “moral imagination” of the country. In this interview with NPR, Senator Booker sets out his 2020 vision for restoring ‘civic grace’ to the country and explains the policy proposals he hopes will win him the White House. Chief among them: his new and comprehensive plan for expanding gun-control. Based on his direct experience of neighborhood shootings, he articulates the personal urgency driving this key policy proposal.
