Globalização e desglobalização

As lições da pandemia da Covid-19 no epicentro de um grande processo de transformação

Abstract

This scientific article aims to analyze the historical process of construction of globalization and the current debate about the possibilities of configuring the movement called deglobalization. Through the hypothetical-deductive method, the exploratory technique and the bibliographic procedure, the text rescues, first, the long trajectory of construction, by the waves of globalization, of an interdependent and multilateral world. In this context, no matter how much planetary flows and institutional and peaceful forms of conflict resolution have been built, many traditional difficulties remain. Hence result the guiding problem: is globalization a process that has gone too far? In fact, it is the permanence of the contretemps ​that drives some political movements that seek, through the rescue of an idealized national past, to break with this process, which destroys the local productive matrixes and causes inequality and poverty, generating a movement of deglobalization – analyzed in the second section. Despite recognizing its importance, it is concluded that the current questioning of globalization, intensified by Covid-19, tends to subsist with the relocation of production units and with a new institutional configuration, more democratic and valuing collective actions aimed at overcoming the economic, social and technological abyss, justifying the value and originality of this research.
