Summary
Geopolitics is reshaping economic globalisation from a just-in-time approach—relying on free markets—to a just-in-case approach emphasising trade defences, industrial policy, and contingency to mitigate disruptions. This book explores how major economies are building new supply chain resilience in microchips, wind turbines, electric vehicle batteries, and other digital and green technologies.
