National power and the structure of foreign trade

Book • 1945
In 'National Power and the Structure of Foreign Trade', Albert O. Hirschman explores the relationship between foreign trade and national power.

He argues that foreign trade has two main effects: an indirect supply effect that enhances a country's military potential, and a direct influence effect that can be used as a tool for economic coercion.

The book examines how countries can leverage trade to exert influence over other nations and discusses strategies for maximizing power through trade policies.
