How has globalization changed the job of secretary of state?
In the political world, the word globalization didn’t exist, but one of the principles we tried to carry out when I was in government was the idea of linkage, which meant the same as globalization, that events are related in different parts of the world. What has changed, of course, are two factors: the economic world is more globalized than it had been say 20 years ago, and the political world has become more fragmented. Asia has become a much more active participant. The developing countries are generating at a faster rate of growth than the developed world.
