Episode #7

Michael O’Sullivan is the author of ‘The Levelling: What’s Next After Globalization’, which examines what’s next in politics, economics, finance and geopolitics in the post globalization era. He sees recent political events, personified in the Brexit vote and the election of Donald Trump, as signalling the end of modern Western politics. Over the next century, Michael predicts a levelling of income gaps, of regional power hierarchies, and that large multi-national institutions, such as the WTO and IMF, will be divested of power.
