The economics behind current developments tell a deeper story. These videos connect research from different TWIN SEEDS work packages to unpack the trade and policy shifts happening around us, going beyond the news cycle to understand what’s really driving change.
Featuring Louise Curran from TBS Education, the series explores the forces shaping today’s global value chains (GVCs) from reshoring and trade wars to employment trends and regional impacts.
This video examines the EU’s strategic approach to trade retaliation: from targeting US transport and chemicals to the uneven regional impacts across Europe. It’s all about calculated damage control rather than winning. See how the trade policy chess game actually works.
Reshoring sounds straightforward, but the reality is more complex. Bringing production back home doesn’t always mean more jobs! It depends heavily on which regions are involved. Louise Curran also examines an unexpected twist: how reshoring might actually reduce carbon emissions through shifts in production patterns.
