Up until recently we all naively believed 'a rising tide lifts all ships' meant we'd all choose to get along and everyone would benefit.

It wasn't a naive belief, people did choose to get along economically and everyone benefited. The naive part is thinking that economic interdependence means political submission and that political and economic development are necessarily related.
