Overview: Post-Cold War global economic order is in trouble. As a result of rising protectionism, mercantilism, security concerns, tensions between geopolitical rivals, and the current account and currency crisis, the order has been fundamentally undermined. There are losers and winners in the international order, as there are in the domestic sphere, which generates contrasting preferences. My research project aims to disentangle and identify the sources of support and discontent, understand the logic of politics, and contribute to the development of a fair and secure world order.
