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.

Guest: Tara Zahra

Her new book “Against the World” in German: Gegen die Welt. English: Against the World
