Özet: National borders have started to matter again. This unravelling of globalisation – or at least its marked slowdown – has partly been the product of conscious efforts by national policy makers and voters to ‘take back control’ of borders. These efforts are often associated with Donald Trump’s “America First” and the sloganeering of Eurosceptics, most notably in Britain. Yet this revival of economic nationalism goes much deeper than its most obvious manifestations. It is visible in Joseph Biden’s sustained efforts to decouple the USA’s economy from China, which mirror the efforts of the Chinese leadership to develop its home markets and indigenise technological innovation. It is similarly visible in a renewed focus on industrial policy championed in Germany, France and even at the level of the European Union. Comparable trends also emerge in the Global South, from Narendra Modi’s plan to develop a ‘self-sufficient’ India to the rise of ‘resource nationalism’ in sub-Saharan Africa and Latin America. Finally, resistance to migration continues to motivate and rile voters across the globe – protests that often draw on a potent stew of domestic inequality and rising costs of living that stoke xenophobic resentment. How can we make sense of these developments, and what are the driving factors behind this resurgence of economic nationalism? In my new book, I argue that this resurgence is neither unprecedented nor surprising when viewed from a long-run perspective. Drawing on a global array of historical case studies – from the American Revolution in the eighteenth century to the contemporary rise of China – I offer a unified framework to categorize, understand, and ultimately explain economic nationalism.
