The Impact of Sanctions on North Korea, China, and Russia

This episode of Guerrilla History is a continuation of our Sanctions As War miniseries (get the book here).  In this fascinating episode, we bring on the Tim Beal to discuss the history and ongoing reality of sanctions on the DPRK and China, as well as how these two cases are intimately related.  Get the word out and share this with comrades involved in the anti-sanctions movement.

Tim Beal is a retired New Zealand academic who has written extensively on Asia, particularly on Northeast Asia and US imperialism. Recent publications include the new introduction (alongside our friend Gregory Elich) of I.F. Stone's The Hidden History of the Korean War, ‘Korea and Imperialism’ (The Palgrave Encyclopedia of Imperialism and Anti-Imperialism), and ‘In Line of Fire: The Korean Peninsula in US-China Strategy’ (Monthly Review).  You can find more of Tim's work by looking at his website, especially the section on Asian Geopolitics.
