Interesting that a journal called "American Affairs" is essentially rejecting the Washington consensus/neoliberalism and strongly imply that the neo-Westphalian/Chinese model is the future. We are truly entering a new era.

I guess politicians fear the economic fallout from giving in to populism more than they want the short term vote gains?
