Technology and the new geography of trade politics

Gary Winslett

Chapter 10 in A Research Agenda for International Political Economy, 2022, pp 171-182 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: New technological developments are complicating how we should understand the relationship between trade and economic geography. These developments are accelerating and shifting economic agglomeration. That improves efficiency but also makes inequality worse, particularly along educational and urban-rural lines. This, rather than the China Shock, is what caused so much political blowback. It is too early to tell but it may be the case that work-from-home somewhat ameliorates these trends.¬â€
