| Abstract Text | In this Kühne Impact Series we provide a historical perspective on globalizationʼs contribution to climate change, and the historical role of trade in bringing us closer to (or further away from) a sustainable world. We introduce the Sustainable Globalization Index (SGI) that tracks the worldʼs progress towards a Sustainable Globalization scenario. The SGI reveals that globalization has historically diverged from a sustainable pattern of trade until the Great Recession, but is now on a converging trend. The comparison in the recent period suggests that the (green) future of trade and logistics involves more trade from and to the economic North, more intraregional trade, and a shift of trade flows in favor of energy and raw materials and away from agricultural goods. |
