** Please note: Those planning to attend events in this series should read the paper that will be posted on the CES website before the seminar.**
The short paper to be discussed is “How the First Globalization Survived Populism” which reflects on the politics of supporting freer flows of people, capital, and goods across borders in the period 1870-1914. It is part of a larger project analyzing debates over globalization in France, UK, Germany, and the USA in the period 1870-1914. As background and for a sense of the larger questions, participants might wish to read also the attached document “The First Globalization: Lessons from the French.”
