Paul Mason, Newnight’s Economics correspondent is on fine form at the moment with a cluster of really good pieces for Newsnight. Here are two recent pieces available from the BBC web site.

In ‘worst case scenario’ Paul Mason looks at some of the systemic risks facing the UK http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/programmes/newsnight/7851138.stm and in this piece he considers the rising tide of protectionist sentiment - are we now moving into an age of de-globalisation?
