They trace the anti-globalist backlash to foreign policy decisions made by Western leaders in the decade after the Cold War's end. These decisions sought to globalise markets and pool national sovereignty at the supranational level while undercutting social protections at home - a combination of policies that succeeded in expanding the Western liberal order, but at the cost of mounting public discontent and political fragmentation.
