Ep. 12: Globalization is Out and Productivism is In, with Dani Rodrik
Globalization made many promises, but left one detail out: it would pit American workers against workers elsewhere around the globe working for a fraction of their pay. The result was a multi-decade decline of our middle class. In the 1990s, Dani Rodrik of Harvard predicted that people would rebel and elect a spokesperson to voice their rage. Anyone come to mind?
Decades ago Rodrik’s was a lonely voice; today he is sought after. Rodrik is looking ahead again, this time he foresees the rise of a new economic consensus. I sat down with him to examine just what he foresees.
