Make America great again! It was President Trump's rallying cry on the campaign trail. And, his win and Brexit's victory at the polls tell us that nationalism is on the rise. But how does that sit with a global economy that is increasingly inter-connected? Every day a soaring amount of information and data crosses national boundaries.
