Krátky popis
AN INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER“Deftly written, Chokepoints is
a compelling and dramatic narrative about the new shape of
geopolitics.”— Daniel Yergin, The Wall Street Journal“A timely,
riveting world tour…[An] absorbing book.”— The
Economist“Remarkable…One of the most important books on economic
warfare ever written.”—&,nbsp,Paul Kennedy, author of The Rise
and Fall of the Great PowersThe epic story of how America turned
the world economy into a weapon, upending decades of globalization
to take on a new authoritarian axis—Russia, China, and Iran.It used
to be that ravaging another country’s economy required blockading
its ports and laying siege to its cities. Now all it takes is a
statement posted online by the U.S. government.In Chokepoints,
Edward Fishman, a former top State Department sanctions official,
takes us deep into the back rooms of power to reveal the untold
history of the last two decades of U.S. foreign policy, in which
America renounced the gospel of globalization and waged a new kind
of economic war. As Vladimir Putin, Xi Jinping, and Ayatollah
Khamenei wreaked havoc on the world stage, mavericks within the
U.S. government built a fearsome new arsenal of economic weapons,
exploiting America’s dominance in global finance and technology.
Successive U.S. presidents have relied on these unconventional
weapons to address the most pressing national-security threats, for
good and for ill.Chokepoints provides a thrilling account of one of
the most critical geopolitical developments of our time,
demystifying the complex strategies the U.S. government uses to
harness the power of Wall Street, Silicon Valley, and Big Oil
against America’s enemies. At the center of the narrative is an
eclectic group of policy innovators: the diplomats, lawyers, and
financial whizzes who’ve masterminded America’s escalating economic
wars against Russia, China, and Iran.Economic warfare has become
the primary way the United States confronts international crises
and counters rivals. Sometimes it has achieved spectacular success,
other times, bitter failure. The result we live with today is a new
world order: an economic arms race among great powers and a
fracturing global economy. Chokepoints is the definitive account of
how America pioneered this new, hard-hitting style of economic
war—and how it’s changing the world.
