... Brexit is part of a deep trend in the United States and Europe: a
rejection by roughly half of the population of globalization as currently
implemented. Almost every country in Europe now has a rising populist,
anti-immigrant party, while the United States has Donald Trump ... They
believe that immigration is out of control, culturally destabilizing, and
adverse to their economic interests. They believe that the political and
financial elites have joined forces to abuse power, evade taxes, and twist
globalization toward narrow ends. These attitudes are not racist,
xenophobic, or fascist (despite claims to the contrary, and despite enough
racists and xenophobes in our midst). They are based on facts on the ground.
