Have We Reached the End of Globalisation?

27/07/2017 GMT

BBC World Service - Business Daily, Have We Reached the End of Globalisation?

Much has been made of China's "One Belt, One Road" policy, the country's ambitious plans to re-imagine the old Silk Road trading route. It's a globalising outward looking trade plan, at a time when many of the World's other leading economies are beginning to view globalisation with suspicion and retreating from it. 
So is the New Silk Road the beginning of a new era for global trade or the last stand for globalisation? Professor Stephen King is HSBC's senior economic adviser and author of the new book Grave New World:The End of Globalization, the Return of History.

And, we hear about living and working in 24 hour light. The BBC's Elizabeth Hotson travels inside the Arctic Circle.
