In the 21st century, economic statecraft has become an increasingly important tool for countries to achieve their foreign policy goals. Economic statecraft refers to the use of economic measures, such as trade, investment, and sanctions, to influence the behavior of other countries. In recent years, economic statecraft has been used to promote democracy, deter aggression, and combat terrorism.

David Baldwin's new book, Economic Statecraft: A New Edition, provides a comprehensive overview of the theory and practice of economic statecraft in the 21st century. Baldwin argues that economic statecraft is a powerful tool that can be used to achieve a wide range of foreign policy goals. However, he also cautions that economic statecraft can be a double-edged sword. If it is not used wisely, it can backfire and damage the interests of the country that is using it.

Baldwin's book is divided into two parts. The first part provides a theoretical overview of economic statecraft. Baldwin discusses the different types of economic measures that can be used for statecraft purposes, and he analyzes the factors that affect the effectiveness of economic statecraft. The second part of the book provides a series of case studies of how economic statecraft has been used in practice. Baldwin examines cases from a variety of countries, including the United States, China, and Russia.

Economic Statecraft: A New Edition is a timely and important book. It provides a comprehensive overview of a complex and challenging topic. Baldwin's book is essential reading for anyone who is interested in the use of economic power in international relations.
