About the Discussion:

Drawing on data from the YouGov-Cambridge Globalism project which consists of extensive multidimensional surveys conducted in 23 countries, the discussion will centre around the changing geography of globalisation as it is not just shifting economically but also publicly. The pro-globalisation public consensus that used to characterise Western politics is essentially moving to East. This raises an important question: has the traditional link between globalisation and the spread of Western liberal norms around the world been permanently broken?
