Abstract

Based on historical analogies, we emphasize a connection between financial crises and technological shifts that calls for a structural economic transformation. Political pressures related to this structural transformation pave the way for the return of a new form of mercantilism. The race for jobs in a period of technology shift, coupled with experimental efforts by central banks, will lead to the need for a post-Covid-19 reorganization of international companies’ global logistics chain.
