We might think of globalization as a recent phenomenon, but economists have been discussing the problem for over a century. Historian Quinn Slobodian explores the globalization theories of the turn of the 20th century when German and Austrian economists debated a new entity they called "the world economy," defining a term that would not appear in English, French or other languages for decades. What was the nature of this "world economy"?

Come join in the discussion with Slobodian and CERN theorist Subodh Patil about the implications of this research in the 21st century.
