Description
Treasury's War: The Unleashing of a New Era of Financial Warfare by Juan Zarate is a gripping account of how the US Treasury redefined its role in modern financial warfare. A former senior official, Zarate pulls back the curtain on this shadowy world, revealing how a small group of officials harnessed the power of globalization and the American market to apply financial pressure against rogue regimes and terrorist groups. This book provides an unprecedented look at how the Treasury's unique powers and relationships were used to isolate enemies from the international financial system. Zarate explains how this new brand of financial power leveraged the private sector and banks to undermine America's foes, becoming a critical tool in vital geopolitical challenges such as terrorism and nuclear proliferation. The result is a unique story of the US's financial war campaigns and the contours and uses of financial power, shedding light on how America's competitors and enemies are now learning to use this type of power themselves.
