  「透過扣問『什麼最重要』、『誰最重要』這些最基本的問題,本書帶來了對於未來有條件的樂觀:全球合作是可能(且必要)的,但要能產生正面的社會影響,必須是建立在明智且以群體、永續、公平為重要價值的經濟思考上。通往這個新形態資本主義的路途,正是由像《Homecoming》這樣的著作所鋪就的。」──瑪里亞娜‧馬祖卡托,經濟學家、《萬物的價值》作者
 
  二十一世紀初,湯馬斯.佛里曼在《世界是平的》中宣告:全球化是新的經濟秩序。十多年過去,《金融時報》全球財經專欄作家兼副主編拉娜‧福洛荷,在她的最新著作中則指出:全球化主宰的時代已經走到終點。
 
  空蕩蕩的超市貨架、短缺的個人防護裝備……新冠肺炎疫情將全球交易及供應鏈的脆弱,暴露在人們眼前,而烏俄戰爭,以及隨之而來政治經濟的混亂局勢,更突顯了全球化的弱點。福洛荷觀察到,全球化帶來的隱患早有端倪,將效率和獲利置於彈性與地方繁榮之前的新自由主義經濟哲學,造成了巨大的不平等、持續的經濟不安全感,以及對政府機構的不信任。
 
  透過詳盡的報導和採訪,福洛荷紀錄下我們是如何走到了這個轉變的時刻,並分析眾多國家採取的策略,檢視了新時代的挑戰與可能性,企圖為我們在後全球化的世界裡,指引一條通往平等和繁榮的道路。(文/博客來編譯)

  A sweeping case that a new age of economic localization will reunite place and prosperity, putting an end to the last half century of globalization—by one of the preeminent economic journalists writing today

  At the dawn of the twenty-first century, Thomas Friedman, in The World Is Flat, declared globalization the new economic order. But the reign of globalization as we’ve known it is over, argues Financial Times columnist and CNN analyst Rana Foroohar, and the rise of local, regional, and homegrown business is now at hand.
 
  With bare supermarket shelves and the shortage of PPE supplies, 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.
 
  This 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.
 
  With the pendulum of history swinging back, Homecoming explores both the challenges and the possibilities of this new era, and how it can usher in a more equitable and prosperous future.
