These two paragraphs at the beginning are quite good, never saw it that way, but it does seem obvious.

The simplistic notion that Trumpism represents a return to protectionism and national trade rivalries conceals the real inner contradictions of global capitalism that are bringing the twenty-first century world order to the breaking point. The system faces a structural crisis of extreme inequality and overaccumulation, as well as a political crisis of legitimacy and an ecological crisis of sustainability.

But there is another dimension to crisis that is escalating international tensions and, depending on the turn of events, could well spark world conflagration. The disjuncture between a globalizing economy and a nation-state system of political authority threatens to undermine the system’s ability to manage the crisis and helps explain Trump’s reckless anti-China posturing.

Then the rest of the article is not that good I thought, then again I could be wrong. The Marxist professor gives his analysis of the world and suggests at the end, what is really needed is no more other than the League of Nations yet again, to talk about stuff, which did not work that well the first time.

But this time, the New League of Nations will be all about class struggle.

Well, got to give the Marxist credit, they never deviate from the standard line.
