About The Event

Program Begins – 6:30 PM
Once seen as a force for peace and prosperity, globalization promised to make nations more connected, economies more efficient, and the world more stable. But the global order built on open markets and interdependence has begun to unravel, revealing the risks of relying on fragile supply chains, deepening inequality, and fueling geopolitical rivalry.
Join David J. Lynch, senior writer on global economics for The Washington Post, for a compelling discussion on how the globalization gamble went wrong and what it means for the future of the world economy. Drawing on decades of experience reporting from Washington, Beijing, and beyond, Lynch offers a clear-eyed look at how the pursuit of economic integration reshaped politics, empowered adversaries, and left democracies struggling to adapt.
This timely program will examine what lessons can be learned and how the United States and its partners can navigate a world where globalization’s biggest bet may have backfired.
