Is the World at Risk of a New Economic Cold War?

More than 30 years after the fall of the Iron Curtain, might the world be on the verge of a new Cold War? Gita Gopinath says that tensions between the world's most powerful nations have caused fragmentation of the global economy into competing regional blocs. The First Deputy Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund joins the show to discuss this "turning point" for the world economy.
