Description
The book meticulously documents the failures of sanctions and embargoes, demonstrating how they often exacerbate the very problems they aim to solve. Instead of fostering peace and stability, economic warfare breeds corruption, fuels black markets, and criminalizes legitimate businesses. The human cost is immeasurable, with vulnerable populations suffering from the denial of essential goods, the disruption of healthcare systems, and the erosion of educational opportunities.
Beyond its humanitarian impact, economic warfare has profound geopolitical implications. Pasquale De Marco argues that sanctions and embargoes often escalate tensions between nations, undermine international cooperation, and threaten global stability. The book exposes the hypocrisy of powerful nations that impose economic warfare on weaker countries while engaging in protectionist policies at home.
“The Cost of Economic Warfare” does not simply critique economic coercion; it also offers a vision for a more just and humane world. Drawing on successful examples of conflict resolution without sanctions, Pasquale De Marco advocates for diplomacy, negotiation, and economic engagement as viable alternatives to coercion. The book provides a roadmap for a world beyond economic warfare, where conflicts are resolved through peaceful means and the well-being of all nations is prioritized.
“The Cost of Economic Warfare” is a powerful and timely indictment of a deeply flawed policy. It is a must-read for anyone concerned about the future of peace and cooperation in a globalized world.
