Globalization: Our future or our failure?

Global threats are growing fast, from climate change and nuclear weapons to the spread of infectious disease and job loss from automation. As challenges rise, globalization is rising with it – a highly contested concept. Globalization is the interdependence of governments, economies, people and products, and while it’s supported as a model for protecting human rights and the environment, it’s criticized as a slippery slope to cross-border bullying, bigotry, elitism, and colonialism. Which variations of globalization, if any, are most balanced? Watch three experts debate solutions for the future of globalization.
