Globalization: Past and Future video chat

Globalization: a new phenomenon or an evolving state of the world? In the age of the internet, highly interconnected supply chains and mass migration societies feel more closely linked than ever. But is that really the case?

In this free, four-part mini-course, Professor Jeffrey Sachs argues that we have always lived in a global world. He takes students on a historical and anthropological tour of six distinct waves of globalization and outlines the key factors that drove innovation, technology dispersal and development during these epochs. The course tells the story of a global humanity and asks the question: What lessons can we pull from history to help understand the tumultuous changes underway today?
