"Even as its detractors erect new impediments and walk away from
free-trade agreements, globalization is in fact continuing its forward
march—but along new paths. In its previous incarnation, it was
trade-based and Western-led. Today, globalization is being driven by
digital technology and is increasingly led by China and other emerging
economies."

Near the top of the policy agenda, then, should be the construction of
robust high-speed broadband networks.
