Chokepoints – How the Global Economy Became a Weapon of War
Update: 2025-05-09
Description
Sanctions have become the go-to policy tool of our times, yet the lessons of the past are often forgotten by those at the centre of the world's stage today.
CFS Director Tom Keatinge speaks with Eddie Fishman, a former US State Department sanctions official, about his new book ‘Chokepoints.’ Eddie gives a behind the scenes account of how the power of the US dollar and US-dominated financial and trade systems have been harnessed to support the projection of US foreign policy, and what lessons this 25-year episode of history holds for today’s policymakers.
