At a luncheon hosted by the Ottawa Diplomatic Association and the National Press Club of Canada, author John Ralston Saul discusses the thesis put forth in his new book, "The Collapse of Globalism and the Reinvention of the World." He explains that globalism, which was said to be inevitable, is not progressing as was predicted, but rather is collapsing. He points to and elaborates on numerous events and trends that support this idea, and suggests that if people read the papers and listen to the news with the idea that globalism is not inevitable in mind, they will see that in fact nationalism, war, and rising fear are becoming more dominant than economic globalization. Particularly in recent years, he notes, there has been a return of negative nationalism and racism. After his talk, Saul takes questions from the audience. <86mn>
