Walls have always divided the world, from the Great Wall of China to the Berlin Wall. But a new age of isolationism has brought a surge of borders and barriers, as nations wall themselves off from immigrants, terrorism, and economic woes. Journalist Tim Marshall examines the urgent global trends behind this rise of borders, revealing the complex forces - wealth, race, religion, politics - that drive us apart.
