      Hello, I've been watching many videos about China. In Short- China is corrupt from top to bottom. From everyone ripping off each other off, stealing, polluted water, Tofu-Dreg everywhere, social unrest and economic decline to population loss. China is headed to collapse and revolution. How this will play out geopolitically is uncertain. I just found you so I'll be subscribing and checking out your videos. Do more videos on China if you see fit . Thanks.

      honestly its just the west being dellusional, the rest of the world will continue to globalise and trade regardless of the economic suicide the US and EU is committing. just because we are not "highlighted" in the map, doesn't mean we don't exist. the west continuing to treat us as if we don't exist, forces us to trade with the only side that treat us as if we exist... surely you can see that?

      There is a big flaw in the video. I stop watching after that. The standard narrative is that the "west" is trying to make the world be more equal economically in the liberalization era. This cannot be further from the truth. The west have in mind what global trade is suppose to be:
      1. Trade between nations is done by "western firms", the main actors.
      2. The high value added industries are in the west, while low skill, low tech, and resource extraction is done in the rest.
      3. Cheap production base for western firms, and cheap goods for western consumers.
      This is very hard to accept if you are China, or Russia and any developing economies. Why is it that they have to always occupt the lower end of the value chain? Most countries have higher aspiration than being factory workers, and producing cheap goods. China has been doing this for decades, but they now want to start making higher value goods, and this scared the west. This is why we have a trade war.

    Interesting that you did not mention a fourth category of those who will benefit from increased fragmentation. That category is labor. Increased fragmentation will lead to increased re-shoring. While I've been hoping for more re-shoring than I'm seeing, I'd recommend looking and exploring this question as to the ongoing trends. For instance, there is already a requirement for data centers (and hence the technicians) to be located in countries that serve the customers of the corresponding databases; or at least be located in "friendly"/aligned countries.

Yeah, Mexico is cheaper, but surprisingly not a cheaper than America, and if we nearshored even half of our imports from China to Latin America, it would probably end up making the US even more cost-competitive.
      Cost of labor per hour really isn't the only factor. There are also things like labor output per hour (quite high in America), energy costs, land costs, regulatory costs, political risks, etc. Mexico more cost-competitive than America for some things, but not by a lot, and in the last decade, America was actually the most competitive economy globally for most economic activity.

      I wanted to hear more about the impacts on the US economy and the ideas of “friend-shoring” advocated for by the New Idealist school of geopolitics. I.e. - if allies are too dependent on geopolitical rivals (Germany to China and Russia), then countries like Canada might weaken some of their regulatory barriers to some activities/raw materials specifically for those allies in order to ween them off of rivals. That would reorient trade, not necessarily reduce it, and concentrate additional wealth in new/unexpected places.
      Also, growth in the Global South is still possible while decoupling from China, and that is precisely the area going through the demographic explosion while China/Russia are dramatically declining in population.

      "Many people claim it was completely laissez faire and the government played no role"
      Well, we know this wasn't the case because the US allowed for slavery which was enforced through the government. With the 3/5ths compromise, that gave agrarian slave states like Virginia more sway in government policies than it otherwise would have.
      Then we have the Civil War with the industrialization being a key benefit in the North, with Lincoln starting the Trans-Continental Railroad during the war. Obviously, those rails would be placed around the more populous industrial centers, giving them an edge compared to less populated areas. It would be ignorant to say "Government played no role" because this was such a huge investment for infrastructure, directly benefiting some more than others.
      The question that would be curious to ask is not "Did government play a role?" but "How much of a role did it play?".

Add in what the EU is doing post-Covid and their economies aren't doing half bad (relatively) as well, even with energy supplies cut.

    Data is sort of questionnable. Particularly during the "first wave of globalization".
    Did "trade openess," measured by imports and exports, simply increase naturally over time as economies could simply produce more goods(due to the industrial revolution and technology in general) and thus trade more goods?
    It is possibly a mischaracterization to use imports and exports to measure trade openness.
    In other words, states may have simply had more excess goods to trade due to technology increasing output, and thus traded more, but were not necessarily more "open" or willing to trade with each other

  • @Llkc60

    one thing not covered here is that by the early 2010's globalization was mainly aiding US competitors chief among them China. While american growth was sluggish, public and private debt skyrocketed, social tensions caused by wealth imbalances started political destabilization and radicalization. A system that works well for economic expansion at the price of long-term security and growth should not be maintained especially when it is financed by debt that returns less than the actual credit. (just think of the Fed's QE ledger.)
    As it is covered in the material interest rates will be higher overall, and I am also expecting the price of government borrowing rates to go up even higher compared to reference central bank rates: think of the reforms on the us repo markets.
    What we see here is a re-prioritization of objectives where economic growth shifts from number one and security becomes priority.

      Humans can learn to handle long days very well if they get an equivelent amount of sleep. I myself for almost a year did 30-35 hours awake "days"(compared to the typical of 16-17 hours awake days) and you can feel and look fine if you sleep hours reletive on your time awake.
      Note that aspects of your eating is also important.
      Whether your fasting or running on a recent meal can drasticly change how your body feels about long days.
      Smaller more frequent meals make longer days drastically more easy than big meals.
      Especially when you dont eat extra times if you are awake for extra time.
      Which you commonly see with people who have designated 2-3 meals a day that ignore how long they have been awake for.

    In other words, the countries that are most able to be self-sufficient on their own will do best - those who are less vulnerable to a lack of resources. Normally Russia would be a big one there, but they are in the middle of screwing themselves. China might have been one too, but they are in the midst of a demographic bomb that is going to screw them hard - they're going to have over 300 million retirees in 2030. The countries to watch I'd say are France, India, and the US.

On the other hand, if they manage to "do more" eg. perform some part of the production process, then they gain faster GDP growth and more control over their future.

    On Brexit, there are a number of really good economist articles about this. If we look at the FTSE 250 which is representative of the British industry, we can see it outperforming pretty much all European indexes, a cheap £ helped capital inflows. But more importantly, British firms enforced their own import substitution methods to buy goods/services from other British firms in response to possible EU duties and higher import costs as a result of Brexit - Kind of similar to how Russian domestic industry is stabilised despite being heavily sanctioned through import substitution.
    And just recently, Britain overtaken France as the Europes 3rd largest manufacturer after Germany/Italy despite being a service oriented economy is remarkable. I also think this is reaffirmed by recent PMI data in British manufacturing being an order of magnitude higher than any European country.
    I think a careful balance of isolationism works for internal industry if done right. There is a small teething period as in the case of Brexit, but the IMF projects the UK to be the fastest growing large economy in Europe for the forseeable future which shows limited fragmentation can be fruitful.

    The first wave of globalization was driven by steamships, powered by coal.
    That first wave ended when coal-production in Great Britain peaked and started to decline (1913), which coincided with WW1
    The second wave of globalization was driven by diesel powered ships. Your "third wave" is just a continuation of the diesel powered shipping.
    In 2006-2008 oilprices increased significantly and shipping became more expensive and this slowed globalization down.
    The slowdown since 2006 is compounded by the depletion of natural resources in many countries.
    Mexico and Indonesia have passed peakoil. China reached peak-coal and peak energy in the last decade, just prior to the pandemic.
    When more countries (regions) become more self-sufficient, world markets and global prices become less important.
    14:20 Are markets really global? Or just as long as transport is cheap and easy (low energy-costs)
    Countries that impose import-tariffs or export-bans (or import-bans ie. sanctions) move toward self-sufficiency. We will see this trend continue and become stronger.
    When regions become self-sufficient for certain commodities or products, they will no longer be bothered by price volatility.
    Europe is struggling to become energy-self-sufficient. Electricity-prices in Europe are becoming very volatile, because of the intermittency of solar and wind. And the fact that electricity is very hard to transport in contrast to oil, coal and gas.
    I'm looking forward to your views on energy, the master-resource of the global economy.
    I think that localization is a better word than fragmentation.
    Before fossil fuels (coal and oil) came into play, all economies were mostly localised. There was little global trade with sailing ships.
    With diminishing global diesel production global trade will shrink further.
    Someday sailing ships will cross the oceans again, carrying tea, coffee and spices.

    In my eyes, USA being too strong at both hard and soft power is seen as a threat to other nations. It can punish many nations with economy sanction that not many can't survive unscathed. It also strongly against anyone having nuclear warhead despite they were the one whoiinitiate it in the first place. They alrdy caused 2 major global financial crisis in the last century. They also initiate the global adaptation of fiat currency that look more like a giant ponzi scheme. After WW2, sure, they were seen as the only nation that can lead the world toward economic globalization. But now USA is more like a giant powder keg that can explode anytime. In actuality, Russia and China act as counter-balance against USA, to keep global peace maintained by MAD intact. But who knows how long it can last?
