Globalism and the unchecked capitalism it has spawned has shown itself to be a dismal failure.

I disagree with your first part but agree with the second part.

You can't say that globalization breeds unchecked capitalism, that is making far reaching assumptions. Globalization can be very well managed, and you just have to look at the top players in the world (company speaking) to realize that. You can't apply the same standardized policy to every single operating unit across your company. If so, then yes, that does breed unchecked capitalism.

Do you think Microsoft will be where they are today if they didn't cater to the global market? Amazon? Apple? IBM? Fiat? The list goes on and on. What computer/phone are you typing on? I guarantee you, if you look around, most everything that you own or use stems from globalization.

Please, I implore you to seek out what key economists have to say about globalization, and it's implications on the modern world. If you don't want to do that for yourself, here are plenty of links:
