Is There a Decoupling?
Do we see anything in the research to indicate that the world is actually moving toward decoupling, which is also very much part of the media narrative? If you look along regional lines, individual regions can't be independent. Does greater regionalization actually improve resilience? To some degree, you can say, well, if I'm self-sufficient, I'm more resilient. On the other hand, all of a sudden you depend on yourself for everything and that's a point of vulnerability just like getting it only from one other person would be a problem.
