Michael Wesley (2015) | Feudal World

Globalism is a Western construct which may not survive in its
current form. Asia’s rising powers are starting to look past
global institutions to construct alternatives which could see
what we know as the global community become obsolete. Michael
Wesley deconstructs our current realities as finite as “just
because globalism is so basic to how we live doesn’t mean it’s
inevitable and here to stay”.
