 ===The Future of Immigration: Four Paths===
-[[library:the_future_of_immigration_four_paths|The Future of Immigration: Four Paths]] by the [[encyclopedia:institute_for_the_future|Institute for the Future]] believes that "...Over the past few decades, a vastly more interconnected global economy has created relatively stable growth built on the so- called post-WWII political consensus. Today, however, this vision of a world of autonomous nations working together to manage a global political economy based on a free market has begun to fray under the pressures of growing wealth inequality, a slowdown in global economic growth,the rise of online disinformation, and a need for a new global energy infrastructure. Meanwhile, plutocratic governments undermine democratic institutions, fueled by globally connected networks of crime and corruption. The result is greater political and economic volatility, with more populations at risk of economic and political displacement."

+===The World in 2040: The future of healthcare, mobility, travel and the home===
+[[library:the_world_in_2040_the_future_of_healthcare_mobility_travel_and_the_home|The World in 2040: The future of healthcare, mobility, travel and the home]] by [[encyclopedia:allianz_partners|Allianz Partners]] makes two salient points.  First, that In the last 25 years, modern globalization has done more to reduce world poverty than all of the foreign aid provided by the rich world to the developing world since the end of the Second World War. Second, that it is also much harder than it once was for any existing national economies, including that of the USA, to de-globalize because international commerce today is driven by knowledge flows, which are not stopped by tariffs and walls, and by the large-scale production enabled by cross-border supply chains.
+===GAO 2018-2023 Strategic Plan: Trends Affecting Government and Society===
+[[library:gao_20182023_strategic_plan_trends_affecting_government_and_society|The GAO 2018-2023 Strategic Plan: Trends Affecting Government and Society]] by the [[encyclopedia:us_government_accountability_office|US Government Accountability Office]], however, notes that growth from such globalization in the United States, while outpacing that of peers in Europe and Japan, has yielded substantial increases in wealth and opportunity for only a small share of the population, despite low unemployment. Lagging growth and opportunity have caused many to reconsider governments’ roles in managing globalization and technology and have increased the appeal of populist and nationalist political movements.
