As countries adapt to a changing international order, economic considerations are becoming central to geopolitical competition, and the boundaries between economics and security are growing less distinct. This book examines how economic forces shape conflict and how instability, in turn, influences economic outcomes. It brings together perspectives that are often considered separately, connecting theoretical frameworks with contemporary developments to explain the economic dimensions of conflict in the twenty-first century.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnalysis of economic statecraft and sanctions, from coercion to countermeasures, including the legal and policy challenges of a geoeconomic order, useful for assessing how states use trade and finance to pursue strategic goals.\u003cbr\u003eTrade fragmentation and global value chain reconfiguration in the post-2020 economy, relevant to country-risk and supply-chain assessment.\u003cbr\u003eCase studies including the Strait of Hormuz (energy chokepoints and food security), Yemen, and Russia under war and sanctions.\u003cbr\u003ePractical chapters on investment and FDI during conflict, maritime trade disruption, and resilience in tourism and hospitality.\u003cbr\u003eInterdisciplinary perspective combining economics, political economy, international relations and international economic law.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCoverage\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFifteen chapters cover economic statecraft and sanctions, the economic triggers and aftermath of modern warfare, investment and FDI under conflict, trade fragmentation and global value chain reconfiguration, maritime trade, energy chokepoints and food security, and the exploitation of natural resources in occupied territories.
