The world is at a turning point. While globalization benefited
many, it produced extremes with drastic wealth inequality,
indebtedness, and political volatility among the most important. As
the ground underneath globalization undergoes tectonic shifts,
noisy, chaotic, and disorderly events--such as Brexit and the
election of Donald Trump--are the first harbingers of a world being
turned upside down. In this book, Michael O'Sullivan shows the many
ways the levelling of the twenty-first century will unfold: The
levelling-out of wealth between rich and poor countries; of power
between nations and regions; of political accountability and
responsibility between political leaders and "the people"; and of
institutional power--away from central banks and defunct
twentieth-century institutions such as the WTO and IMF. The
Levelling comes at a crucial time in the rise and fall of nations
and has special importance for Americans as our place in the world
undergoes radical change--the ebbing of our influence, profound
questions over our economic model, the apparent decay in our
society, and turmoil in our public life-- before our very eyes.
