The reports of globalization's death are greatly exaggerated. We often hear that globalization is dying, especially when trade wars and anti-globalization groups make it seem that way. But the truth is quite different. Lukas Linsi shows that companies still invest in other countries, even during tough times like the US-China trade war, and that globalization is alive and changing, not dying.
