Welcome to another instalment of the Hinrich Foundation Trade Book Talks. In this comprehensive session, Research Director Chuin Wei Yap hosts author, historian, and economist Marc Levinson for a deep-dive exploration into international commerce, trade standards, and the geopolitical friction reshaping global supply chains. Over the last few decades, we transitioned from an era where very little commerce was truly international to a world completely dominated by complex global networks. Today, those very underpinnings are under immense stress from national self-interests, weak multilateral enforcement, and maritime security threats. 📚 About the Guest: Marc Levinson is an economist, historian, and journalist whose celebrated books include The Box and Outside the Box. His upcoming biography on UPS founder James E. Casey releases this autumn. About Trade Book Talks Our Trade Book Talks delve into timely research-driven perspectives on global trade issues for an audience of academics, policymakers and trade practitioners. Each moderated session features authors of recently published books that provide insight into the evolving global trade landscape. https://tinyurl.com/yk9w2azz #TradePolicy #InternationalRelations #Economics #USForeignPolicy #WTO #BilateralDeals #GlobalEconomy #MaritimeHistory
