Reddit reviews War by Other Means: Geoeconomics and Statecraft

most people believe in some form of Hitler style economics though, the use of government force to curtail the market for the benefit of society/the state. Hitler says something along the lines of: subjecting business interest to political interest, the book "war by other means", is such a type of advocacy.

I'm going to recommend War by Other Means: Geoeconomics and Statecraft.
Description: "In a cogent analysis of why the United States is losing ground as a world power and what it can do to reverse the trend, War by Other Means describes the statecraft of geoeconomics: the use of economic instruments to achieve geopolitical goals. Geoeconomics has long been a lever of America’s foreign policy. But factors ranging from U.S. bureaucratic politics to theories separating economics from foreign policy leave America ill prepared for this new era of geoeconomic contest, while rising powers, especially China, are adapting rapidly. The rules-based system Americans set in place after World War II benefited the United States for decades, but now, as the system frays and global competitors take advantage, America is uniquely self-constrained. Its geoeconomic policies are hampered by neglect and resistance, leaving the United States overly reliant on traditional military force."

Some endorsements:
"Robert Blackwill and Jennifer Harris do policymakers a service by reminding them of the importance of geoeconomic tools. In a world increasingly affected by economic power, their analysis deserves careful consideration. (Dr. Henry A. Kissinger, former U.S. Secretary of State)"

"A brilliant, comprehensive study of how economic measures have been―and should be―used to pursue geopolitical objectives. War by Other Means should be required reading for all presidential candidates and their foreign policy advisors. (General (Ret.) David H. Petraeus, Chairman, KKR Global Institute and former Director of the Central Intelligence Agency)"

"The economic aspect of foreign policy will be crucial to the next president’s success. She or he will need to reckon with Blackwill and Harris’s powerful arguments. (Lawrence H. Summers, President Emeritus and Charles W. Eliot University Professor of Harvard University and former Secretary of the Treasury)"

別擔心。我不知道tg高層是不是暸解到，他們的這种套路(仼菲律賓香蕉在港口爛掉?), 美國早巳暸然於心，因此現在才下定決心從各方面進行圍堵？

2016一本非常有影響力的書"戰争的另一种手段"( War By Other Means)， 对tg這套手法作了系統性的描述。它説tg是"地緣經濟學"(利用經濟勢力達到政治目標)的全球第一玩家，而美國反而忘記怎麽玩了，例如馬歇爾計劃的時代。

譲tg繼續這麽玩下去吧。美國和西方已經把tg定性為掠奪性經濟。全世界的眼球越多，tg就越没法假扮犧牲者的角色。把吸血鬼從陰影裏逼進光天化日，讓陽光發揮自浄就行了。
