Academically, the current stage is "think globalization". But there're various forms of globalization dated back to Silk Road etc.

I will draw your attention to this 2003 article by Buffett that explains in his view what is going on and what his solution is. What Trump did right is that he looked at the problems squarely in the face instead of dodging them. What he did wrong is almost everything: he either weaponises the issues for personal gain, or the problems are way over his head. https://www.berkshirehathaway.com/letters/growing.pdf

Globalisation is far from inevitable. The 1930s is one big setback but there has been others. Globalisation is one mechanism that creates conditions for win win that stop ourselves from killing each other. What is different in 2025 is that information transmission is so much faster, particularly financial information. 167 years old Credit Suisse collapsed almost overnight, you almost don’t feel it. When Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022, oil price did not gyrate like the 1970s. The system is a lot more robust now than what it used to be. So hopefully the speed of adjustment to new shocks will be faster and the system has grown more resilient to lessen the suffering.
