“Ireland has some extreme negative effects of globalisation, which in many cases can be traced to the domestic economy and not to global factors”
Is the era of globalisation coming to an end? And if it is, what does mean for Ireland, a country whose economic model is built on acting as a conduit between continents? These are just some of the question that Sinead O’Sullivan discuses with Michael O’Sullivan in the latest instalment of The Context, our new podcast/book club series. Michael O’Sullivan, a Cork-born economist and former chief investment officer for wealth management at Credit Suisse, discusses the thesis behind his book, The Levelling: What’s Next After Globalisation, zeroing in in on Ireland’s place, in a de-globalizing world.
