The arrival of Trump is reconfiguring world political dynamics. While the public at large knows only about Mr.Trump, there are other interesting personalities too. An example : Mr. Stephen K. Bannon has risen from being the executive chairman of a largely unknown conservative website, to become the second most powerful person in the world after the US President.

It was because of his strategies that Trump, who was written off as a loud-mouthed businessman and a person with no political experience, evolved as a Conservative insurgent with ethno-nationalist ideals and contempt for globalization.Bannon’s website Breitbart, turned into a platform for Alt-Right (Alternative Right) movement. Known for his exclusivist attitude towards other races, misogyny, political incorrectness and protectionist economic philosophy, critics allege Bannon has influenced Trump’s recent actions as President.

What better example of it that the urgent push by President Xi Jinping of China at the WEF, Davos where he praised “free trade” and “globalization”!
