Globalism and Economics

The term 'Globalism' is most commonly used as 'trans-Nationalist', and hardly signifying 'Global' at all. 'Global' connotes a holistic concept, whereas 'trans-Nationalist' is an Atomist concept, signifying as it did centuries ago, a conjunction of National markets.  Likewise, most 'Globalism' these days promotes trans-Nationalism, the Holism of which is betrayed by some Nationalist failure, notably protectionist, such as the recent Brexit.  In contrast, Globalism, connoting a Whole, begins as an Organic concept, and derives the economic well-being of its Parts from that Whole.  Plainly, Human society is a long way from real 'Global economics'.
