The workshop on “Revisiting Globalisation: Comparing Country Experiences from South Asia and the World” was organised by the Institute of South Asian Studies, in collaboration with the Berkeley APEC Studies Centre, University of California, Berkeley, on 12 October 2017 in Singapore. Anti-globalisation leaders and agendas have secured political legitimacy across the world today. The workshop examined this political trend and the prospects of its sustenance by analysing experiences of managing globalisation from Asia, particularly South Asia, and the United States and Europe. The workshop aimed to determine if the antiglobalisation narrative could be countered by positive economic and political illustrations drawn from beneficiaries of globalisation in different parts of the world.
