Gareth Davies: Capital Power, Gebunden

Blurb

Bridging finance and geopolitics, this book provides a practical guide to help readers understand and respond to the financial dynamics of global power struggles and the defining challenges of this century.

Capital plays a crucial role in explaining the global balance of power that predominates in the
present century. Capital Power aims to provide leaders with both the theoretical and practical resources they require to develop policies, build capacities, and execute strategies fit for the global financial arena. By employing a diverse methodological approach, insights from the author's 20 years of experience in both the public and private sector with a core focus on finance, as well as interviews with today's leading political and financial leaders, this book brings a novel perspective and an expanded analytical toolkit to the study of geopolitics. It redefines how we understand financial power in international affairs.

Capital Powerwill encourage readers to think more thoughtfully, consciously, and strategically about the use of finance as a tool of statecraft; the utility of non-traditional conceptions of state power; the strengths and weaknesses of a geofinancial approach; how they can best deploy a country's financial credentials without eroding their foundations; and what this means for state-business relations. It champions a series of detailed policy recommendations and provides a playbook in response to the greatest challenges of this century.
