In The Age of Economic Warfare, part of the Council on Foreign Relations series The Future of American Strategy, WWSG speaker examines how sanctions, tariffs, export controls, and supply chain restrictions have become defining tools of modern geopolitical conflict.
Fishman argues that the global economy built for an era of globalization is beginning to fracture as nations increasingly weaponize economic power in pursuit of strategic advantage. As governments race to adapt, he explores the possible futures of the international economic order—and the risks the United States faces if it fails to help shape what comes next.
