is a phenomenon created and promoted by almost all economists, because they all support the concept of economic globalization and integration.
That is why I have called economics The Doomsday Discipline.
They abhor wealth and income divergence, and ignore the 800 pound convergence gorilla in the room.
Piketty, Rodrik, etc., included.
Steingart, I think, is an exception (The War For Wealth), but, of course, he is not, as I recall, technically, an economist but rather a ' pundit ', a reverse Thomas Friedman, so to speak.
