Summary

If you want to understand what's happening to the world economy, start right here. It used to take blockades and sieges to ravage a rival's economy. Now, a single statement posted online by the US government can bring a nation to its knees. 'Chokepoints' is a gripping behind-the-scenes account of one of the most pivotal geopolitical shifts of our time. Drawing on extensive research, personal experience and interviews with key players, Edward Fishman, a former top US State Department official, takes us deep into the back rooms of power around the world. He reveals how sanctions, tariffs and control over modern-day chokepoints - such as the US dollar, advanced microchip technology and critical energy supply chains - have become the primary weapons of twenty-first-century geopolitics.
