We take so many aspects of international trade for granted. But the way in which goods circle the globe is changing all the time.

In this episode, Eliot Wilson talks to Dr Marc Levinson, author of books like "The Box: How the Shipping Container Made the World Smaller and the World Economy" and "Outside the Box: How Globalization Changed from Moving Stuff to Spreading Ideas".

They discuss the evolving mechanics of globalisation and how it has been affected by the pandemic, as well as the power of commerce to create change throughout societies.
