Confrontations between political globalists and mercantilist nationalists - between supporters of the rules-based international order and proponents of overt protectionism - are fueling ever-stronger international resentments. \u003cbr\u003e\n\nCoupling argumentative rigor with a pragmatic, plainspoken approach, Phil Mullan charts out a novel, democratic way past dangerous and self-defeating confrontations towards a future of open international collaboration based on popular participation within nation states. With its clear-eyed assessment of the opportunities and challenges of a more interconnected world - an assessment in which the economic internationalisation underpinning globalisation theories is neither romanticised nor vilified - \u003ci\u003eBeyond Confrontation\u003c\/i\u003e sets a judicious tone for the big geopolitical themes of our times.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePaperback \/ softback | 256 pages | Published August 2020\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GARDNERS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":66055068123404,"sku":"9781839825637","price":20.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0978\/3459\/8749\/files\/9781839825637.jpg?v=1793502538","url":"https:\/\/www.thebookmark.ie\/products\/beyond-confrontation-globalists-nationalists-and-their-discontents","provider":"The Bookmark ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
