Geschichte ist Gegenwart! Der History & Politics Podcast der Körber-StiftungIs Globalization unstoppable? Insights from the Past
At least for a decade, multiple disruptions and crises have put Globalization to the test. Alas, current Anti-Globalization movements and tendencies are not unprecedented. Is Globalization as such really unstoppable or inevitable? Which parallels can we identify between the Anti-Globalization movement of the 1920s/1930s and today? What role does democracy play in the context of Globalization? And why did and do people, political movements and other actors decide for protectionism and nationalism? This is what we discussed with historian Tara Zahra during our conversation.

Transformative PodcastAnti-Globalism Between the World Wars (Tara Zahra)How did anti-globalism give birth to the multinational corporation? And how did complaints about “the global economy” shape mass politics at the very moment of its emergence? In this episode of the Transformative Podcast, Tara Zahra (University of Chicago) speaks to Rosamund Johnston (RECET) about the ways in which governments and citizens sought, in the interwar period, to reject global interconnectedness. Zahra charts how anti-globalist ideas were then encoded in the international system following World War II and continue to shape some institutions to this day.
