Deglobalization

 "Trumka was concerned about a sudden flood of cheap labor into the global marketplace, and the effect it would have on American workers' incomes and lives. "I told [the official] that the deals would kill us, and he agreed." But the official said that after a while, wages would start to go up again, and things would even out around the world". When Trunka asked him how long this process of "leveling out: might take, he answered: "about three to five generations".

Three to five generations. That's a century in the lives of the communities and the people in question. Is it any wonder, then, that the average American worker, just as those in many rich countries, has begun to question globalization? Or that nationalism and popularism are on the rise?
