Alexander Betts: 點解英國脫歐？下一步點樣做？

點解英國脫歐？下一步點樣做？

社會科學家 Alexander Betts 指出我哋好唔為意我哋個社會有幾分裂；英國脫歐係源於深層次、未探討過嘅社會分裂，分裂出兩班人︰一班人怕全球化，另一班人擁護全球化。面對呢種害怕同埋對政治體制愈嚟愈失望，而又拒絕仇外同民族主義，我哋應該點做？聽下佢講後英國脫歐時代，令世界更包容嘅四個步驟。

The shock of Brexit revealed deep splits in British society along age, geography, and education lines, sparking an outpouring of blame and unprecedented levels of xenophobia. Many who voted to leave felt left behind by globalization and unrepresented by politicians, even in regions benefiting most from EU trade. The real challenge now is to build a more inclusive vision of globalization—one that acknowledges its redistributive effects and bridges divides, rather than fueling fear and isolation.
