Harvard professor of international political economy Dani Rodrik has long been skeptical of what he calls "hyperglobalization," or an advanced level of interconnectedness between countries and their economies. He first introduced his theory of the "globalization trilemma" in the late 1990s, which states that no country can simultaneously support democracy, national sovereignty, and global economic integration.At the time when he proposed his trilemma, Rodrik was considered an outcast. However, economists and policymakers have come to accept his theory as governments seek to address populism, trade imbalances, and uneven growth through renewed interest in industrial policy, or government efforts to improve the performance of key business sectors. Rodrik joins co-hosts Bethany and Luigi to discuss changing attitudes towards globalization: its distributional effects, how it affects politics, and how it is still searching for a narrative consistent between academic circles and the media. Together, the three of them discuss what role corporate America should play in our world restructured by economic and political populism and if economics is getting too far away from the rest of the social sciences when it comes to shaping industrial policy and creating the jobs of tomorrow.Show Notes:Read Rodrik's co-authored December 2023 paper on the "New Economics of Industrial Policy"Read an ebook by ProMarket on cutting-edge contemporary debates around industrial policy

The Federal Capital Territory Administration has commenced the enforcement of the No Vaccination Card restriction or Proof-of-Negative-Test-Result for entry into public facilities. The Senior Special Assistant to the Minister of FCT on Monitoring and Enforcement, Mr Attah Ikaro, says the exercise became necessary to ensure that the spread of the infection in the FCT is curtailed. He says the FCT did not begin enforcement on December 1st, 2021 when the Federal Government began its enforcement because it wanted to give time to the civil servants to get vaccinated. He says, many, however, refused to comply, hence the need for the commencement.

Data obtained from the Department of Petroleum Resources have shown that the Federal Government may generate at least N3.17bn from the payment of fees for the marginal fields put on offer for bidding.

Ayman Odeh, an Arab Minister in the Israeli Knesset, has announced he would be willing to join a moderate left-wing Israeli government. The inclusion of the Arab block could give the Blue and White Party the 61 votes it needs to establish a governing coalition after Israel’s elections on September 17th.

Robert Hahn discusses his recent paper responding to the US Federal Communications Commission's request for guidance in designing a national US broadband plan. Robert Hahn discusses his recent paper responding to the US Federal Communications Commission's request for guidance in designing a national broadband plan. William Dutton responds from a comparative perspective with a response to the Digital Britain Report. The paper responds to the US Federal Communications Commission's request for guidance in designing a national broadband plan. It argues that the US market for Internet services is working well overall, as evidenced by nearly ubiquitous coverage, rapid adoption, large investments, and increasing speeds. Still, the market is not working well for all people in all places, and the paper offers a framework for considering policies intended to mitigate those issues. The core of the paper consists of nine recommendations. Two of our recommendations are general. First, the government should ensure that its interventions do more good than harm. Second, the government should define clear, measurable, goals that do not benefit particular firms, technologies, or regions. The remaining seven recommendations provide specific guidance for a US broadband plan. They include: liberalizing spectrum, gathering and analyzing data on broadband demand, targeting resources to where they are most needed, defining broadband access to maximize social gain, designing mechanisms that will achieve the government's broadband goals at the lowest social cost, vigorous antitrust enforcement, and designing policies to facilitate rigorous evaluation.

Download by clicking on the link below, or SUBSCRIBE in iTunes by clicking on the show logo in the sidebar:RadioFreeG-Episode39-ExecutivePayToday we look at the executive pay capping taking place in the United States. President Barack Obama recently initiated the process that high level executives cannot be properly compensated for their work. No one is going to shed tears over bankers having to take a pay cut, but the overarching issue here is DEADLY.How can companies be expected to retain talent when those with talent know they cannot participate fully in the gains they create for the firm? This is terrible for firms everywhere. The consequences are dire. Oddly enough, they best example to illustrate this is not in the United states, but right here at home in Canada. Specifically, the fiasco of the compensation of the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce CEO Mr. Gerry McCaughey.We have a quick recap of why the financial mess began with an explanation of Asset Backed Commercial Paper, the fundamental interconnectedness of banks through their assets, (YOUR mortgage DEBT), and finally to the extension of this economic turmoil by not adhering to the basic principle of Western Capitalism: Bad companies making bad business decisions SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO FAIL!All the best, All for you, SUBSCRIBE,SUBSCRIBE, SUBSCRIBE to RadioFreeG!Articles referenced in the show by Sinclair Stewart:“Obama Targets Wall Street Excess”“Canada’s Top bankers Taking Pay Cuts”"END TRANSMISSION"
