Here are 10 recommended books for everyone.
🔺1. "The Conflict of Trade": Deconstructs two hundred years of U.S. trade policy history, revealing that tariffs are not only economic tools but also carriers of partisan struggles, identity politics, and hegemonic protection.
🔺2. "Double Shock": Analyzes how, under the dual waves of dollar privilege and digital revolution, the global industrial chain accelerates restructuring, with developing countries facing the dual squeeze of "technological colonization" and "financial siphoning."
🔺3. "Economic Sanctions": Traces the evolution of economic weapons from Napoleon's continental blockade to SWIFT sanctions, revealing how sanctions have upgraded from tactical tools to systemic confrontation, and giving rise to anti-dollar alliances.
4. "Unavoidable Tech Innovation Wars": Focuses on semiconductor industry competition, revealing how the struggle for technological hegemony is reshaping the international order, with technological standards and supply chain security becoming the core battlegrounds for great power rivalry.
5. "Destined for War: Can China and the U.S. Avoid the Thucydides Trap?": Uses the Athens-Sparta confrontation metaphor for China-U.S. relations, emphasizing the risks of strategic misjudgment and proposing the establishment of multi-layered dialogue mechanisms to avoid catastrophic conflict.
6. "The Tragedy of Great Power Politics": Argues that the anarchic international system forces great powers to pursue maximum power, and any cooperation will ultimately disintegrate due to the "security dilemma," with hegemonic shifts accompanied by bloody cycles.
7. "The Strength and Wealth of Nations": Explains the millennia-old logic of military-business symbiosis, showing how maritime hegemony transforms military victories into lasting economic dominance through control of trade nodes and financial rules.
8. "Henry Kissinger: Behind Great Power Politics": Decodes the "ambiguous strategy" of nuclear deterrence during the Cold War, demonstrating how balance-of-power diplomacy maintains fragile equilibrium through threats, concessions, and tacit understanding.
9. "The Strategy of Conflict": Establishes a framework for deterrence theory, clarifying the art of "credible commitments" and "risk management," proving that rational game theory in conflict can create non-zero-sum outcomes.
10. "The Coming Geopolitical Z War": Analyzes strategic chokepoints like the Arctic and Malacca through geographic determinism, predicting that resource competition and control of transportation arteries will trigger a new type of R war in the 21st century.
