In the field of international business the trend has been a move towards globalisation and integration. However research has shown that lately most government policies have been of a protectionist nature. How do you view the field of IB and trade develop in the near future? Further globalisation or a move in the opposite direction?
Also how will firms in your view adapt to the new reality? If there is a change? I co-authored an article ( Case study) dealing with potential managerial implications with regards to a changing business environment, the article can be found here:

The virus already buried neoclassics and globalization together in a family tomb.
International business will continue, but not under ideological umbrella of ' the new economy illusion'. Chinese state capitalism will teach a decisive lecture of 'financial markets as statecraft' or war by other means to the 'free Western world'.

Given the current US-China trade war, what are the feasible off-ramps to end it?
Relevant answer
Answer
I strongly believe the US-China trade war occurs as a result of political change in the US. Discontent regarding bilateral trade with China, which has long been accumulated through the years, has triggered power shift in the US. In addition, the Chinese would never budge as they are ready for all out war. Consequently, this war would keep going on unless another power shift occurs in the US.
I don't think international governance or third country would be able to meditate this conflict. Both countries insist that they are in position to dictate the world. It is not the other way around. The Dispute Settlement Body of the WTO was skipped from the beginning. Hence this conflict can only be solved by the US and China alone.

Is it possible to quantify this in terms of the water footprint method, similar to the carbon footprint, and how will it make exporting countries even more worse off environmentally.
Relevant answer
Answer
it is a simple fact that some watersheds have less water available than others.  those with less water should be the subject of more active water management - at the watershed level at least.  This moves quickly beyond simply counting the litres used although this is a good start.
See also the ISO 14046 standard, which deals with water inventory and management. This standard is quite technical, so there is at least one working group investigating ways to interpret and use it: http://wulca-waterlca.org/

I am looking to aggregate commodities into three main groups: manufacturing, agriculture, and minerals, using for instance UN Comtrade database. Is there any formal classification commonly used in the trade literature?
