ABSTRACT The recent resurgence of economic nationalism, protectionism, and “authoritarian capitalism” has been polymorphic and contradictory. Moves away from multilateralism have often been justified by pleas in favor of “free but fair” trade, and bilateral liberalization. Britain is a particularly interesting case. Among the paradoxes having surrounded the Brexit process, one stands out which underlines another manifestation of this polymorphism: the Scottish government (SG) has indeed announced its intention to hold a second referendum on independence in the wake of Brexit , which is illustrative of the wider dynamism of regionalism and secessionism. As Britain is trying to regain some autonomy from the European Union (EU) therefore, internal challenges to its sovereignty are also intensifying. Yet, so far, mainstream Brexiteers’ and Scottish nationalists’ pursuit of economic autonomy has had little to do with autarky. Both movements, therefore, highlight the fact that economic nationalism should not be reduced to protectionism. Although they are opposed in their stances towards the EU, mainstream proponents of Brexit and of Scotland’s independence indeed share relatively similar (yet largely incompatible) objectives: that of diversifying their country’s commercial relations, and that of regaining control over economic policy through enhanced autonomy from specific political ensembles.

竞争对手的经济民族主义：英国脱欧与苏格兰独立运动的比较

摘要 最近经济民族主义、保护主义和“威权资本主义”的复苏是多态和矛盾的。远离多边主义的举动往往以支持“自由但公平”的贸易和双边自由化为理由。英国是一个特别有趣的案例。在围绕英国退欧进程的悖论中，有一个突出表明了这种多态性的另一种表现：苏格兰政府（SG）确实宣布打算在英国退欧后举行第二次独立公投，这说明了更广泛的地区主义和分离主义的活力。因此，随着英国试图从欧盟（EU）中重新获得一些自治权，对其主权的内部挑战也在加剧。然而，到目前为止，主流脱欧派和苏格兰民族主义者对经济自治的追求与自给自足几乎没有关系。因此，这两个运动都强调了经济民族主义不应沦为保护主义的事实。尽管他们反对欧盟的立场，但英国脱欧和苏格兰独立的主流支持者确实有着相对相似（但在很大程度上不相容）的目标：使他们国家的商业关系多样化，以及通过增强对经济政策的自主权来重新控制经济政策。特定的政治团体。
