" Globalisation as we know it is dead, " she told an audience of economists in Washington Dc .

Ms Reeves spoke of her admiration for Joe Biden 's $430bn (£350bn), which seeks to tame rising prices by cutting the deficit and investing in domestic energy production while promoting Clean Energy .
'Special relationship'She stressed that she did not want to make Britain " a version of America, Australia, Germany or France" as that " would not work".

The Shadow chancellor has promised to cut Britain's debt burden by binding a future Labour government to strict borrowing limits, leading some to suggest it will have to scale back its green prosperity plans.
In her speech, Ms Reeves said her " securonomics" strategy would be " built on The Rock of financial stability and economic security".
'Dangerous'In a Q& A afterwards, she conceded that Labour would not be able to do everything it wanted to do because money would be tight, but she insisted The Party 's manifesto policies were all fully-costed.
She also insisted that Britain would not be turning its back on global trade under Labour, as some critics of Mr Biden have accused him of doing.
" It is not a retreat from trade. It is about doing things differently in the interests of economic security and also security for Working People , " She Said .
Ms Reeves, who also met US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen on her trip, sets out her strategy in detail in a pamphlet,
In January, Energy Secretary Grant Shapps warned that Mr Biden's policies could herald a " dangerous" slide into protectionism.
