Reactions to the Coronavirus pandemic have escalated the pre-existing tensions between the US and China and among different Western nations. Confrontations between political globalists and mercantilist nationalists — between supporters of the rules-based international order and proponents of overt protectionism — are fueling ever-stronger international resentments. Coupling argumentative rigor with a pragmatic, plainspoken approach, Phil Mullan charts out a novel, democratic way past dangerous and self-defeating confrontations towards a future of open international collaboration based on popular participation within nation states. With its clear-eyed assessment of the opportunities and challenges of a more interconnected world — an assessment in which the economic internationalisation underpinning globalisation theories is neither romanticised nor vilified — Beyond Confrontation sets a judicious tone for the big geopolitical themes of our times.
