Abstract
To understand the Global Establishment in the North and Asia, one must first examine the historical context from which it emerged, for its current form is rooted in the recent past. The previous chapter suggested that, when national establishments develop, they begin to merge with national establishments abroad, creating transnationalized networks of elites. This chapter suggests that transnational cooperation developed also as a response of Northern elites to a struggle for survival. The merging of Northern and Asian establishments was overdetermined.
Economic nationalism often waxes, but it also wanes.
