Financial Statecraft: The Role of Financial Markets in American Foreign Policy by Robert E. Litan, Benn Steil

3.0

Although written in 2006, this is a starter primer on the various ways in which control of capital flow affects foreign policy, from dollarization to case studies of PetroChina and Gazprom. For my purposes, one of the most useful pieces was acknowledgement that determined enemies can mount relatively cheap attacks, and fall back on traditional and low-tech means of moving money to get around controls like those contained in the Patriot Act.
