But the reign of globalization as we've known it is over, argues \u003ci\u003eFinancial Times\u003c\/i\u003e columnist and CNN analyst Rana Foroohar, and the rise of local, regional, and homegrown business is now at hand. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWith bare supermarket shelves and the shortage of PPE, the pandemic brought the fragility of global trade and supply chains into stark relief. The tragic war in Ukraine and the political and economic chaos that followed have further underlined the vulnerabilities of globalization. The world, it turns out, isn't flat--in fact, it's quite bumpy. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis fragmentation has been coming for decades, observes Foroohar. Our neoliberal economic philosophy of prioritizing efficiency over resilience and profits over local prosperity has produced massive inequality, persistent economic insecurity, and distrust in our institutions. This philosophy, which underpinned the last half century of globalization, has run its course. Place-based economics and a wave of technological innovations now make it possible to keep operations, investment, and wealth closer to home, wherever that may be. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWith the pendulum of history swinging back, \u003ci\u003eHomecoming\u003c\/i\u003e explores both the challenges and the possibilities of this new era, and how it can usher in a more equitable and prosperous future.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRana Foroohar \u003c\/b\u003eis the author of \u003ci\u003eDon't Be Evil, \u003c\/i\u003e which won a Porchlight Business Book Award, and \u003ci\u003eMakers and Takers.\u003c\/i\u003e Currently the global business columnist and associate editor for the \u003ci\u003eFinancial Times\u003c\/i\u003e and the global economic analyst for CNN, she has served as the assistant managing editor and economic columnist at \u003ci\u003eTime\u003c\/i\u003e and an economic and foreign affairs editor and foreign correspondent at \u003ci\u003eNewsweek\u003c\/i\u003e.
