Abstract

This paper adopts a target zone approach to analyse and interpret the current phase of slowdown, if not retreat, of economic globalisation. A ‘honeymoon’ emerges when a credible limit is imposed on its economic and social costs. Conversely, if the upper cost threshold is not set credibly, a ‘divorce’ from economic globalisation emerges earlier than if no target is taken into account. Such a second case represents the recent events.
