Politics

How will political backlash change the future global economy? In the first of a five part series, Economic Tectonics, the FT’s Martin Sandbu explains what the future may hold.

Ten years ago a Harvard economist suggested that it might not be possible to combine democracy, national sovereignty and economic integration forever. Something would have to give. 2016 might just have proved him right. In this edition of Economic Tectonics, Martin Sandbu from The Financial Times explores how –in his view – today’s fractious politics might change the global economy of the future.
