Professor Meredith A. Crowley, Professor of Economics at Cambridge University, will give the 2025 IFS Annual Lecture on "Trade Wars and the Future of Globalisation". The world enjoyed a dramatic fall in policy barriers to international trade and rising international integration of national markets throughout the 1990s and 2000s. However, since 2010, trade integration has stalled, with the global trade to GDP ratio hovering around 30 percent. Over the last fifteen years, the world has witnessed Britain’s exit from the EU, the 2018 US-China Trade War, major trade sanctions against Russia, and, most recently, the threat of broader American trade restrictions. This lecture will examine recent evidence on exporting firms in multiple countries and suggest new approaches to evaluating the price and welfare impacts of market fragmentation due to Brexit and the US-China Trade War.
