The Politics of Money: Sanctions, Sovereignty, and the New Economic Iron Curtain | BOBC 2025

Описание: Money has become the quiet battlefield of our time. Sanctions, trade restrictions, and digital currencies now determine which nations thrive and which are cut off from the global bloodstream. Power once measured in armies is now exercised through markets, payment systems, and access to credit. A country can lose its influence without losing a single soldier. The new iron curtain is made not of concrete but of code, invisible yet impenetrable. And in this divided economy, the real question is whether sovereignty can survive financial dependence.
