Abstract
Abstract Economists have generally underplayed, until recently, globalization’s role in exacerbating inequality in the advanced economies. But in the public imagination, globalization’s adverse effects have loomed much larger, significantly contributing to the backlash against the political mainstream and the rise of far-right populism.

In these comments, I will summarize a few key takeaways.
