Common Dreams has the article Brexit and the New Global Rebellion.

Things are changing. A major crack has appeared in the edifice of globalization, and the neoliberal order that has dominated the world’s economy since the end of World War II is now in danger.

That’s not necessarily a bad thing, by any means. But poisonous weeds are just as likely as green shoots to grow up through those cracks. To paraphrase John F. Kennedy: Those who make constructive evolution impossible may be making destructive devolution inevitable.

One of my complaints about the way that our country has handled globalization through trade deals like NAFTA and TPP is that the way they are being written gives a good idea a bad reputation.  This article gives a great explanation of what harm can come from giving a good idea a bad reputation.  Giving a good idea a bad reputation may be as big a crime against humanity as what the trade deals themselves do to our people.
