Recenzje

Thomas Zeiler provides a learned account of an essential subject: America's use of trade liberalization as an instrument not just of domestic prosperity but also of international peace and security. Spanning from the rise of free-trade internationalism in the 1930s to the agenda's possible fall today, Zeiler reveals how profoundly Donald Trump and other nationalists have turned away from the longstanding pursuit of 'capitalist peace'DLbut also how the seeds of the revolt were planted long ago. This history of economic statecraft across the American Century could not be more timely.
