When Trade Becomes War

A new kind of war is being fought—not with soldiers or missiles, but with money, data, and power. In this gripping and deeply insightful book, international strategist Harvey Milad uncovers the truth behind the escalating economic war between China and the United States, a conflict that is quietly reshaping the entire global economy. When Trade Becomes War reveals how globalization has fractured into rival systems of state capitalism and liberal capitalism, and how trade, technology, and finance have become the weapons of a new era. The struggle for global supremacy now unfolds in supply chains, rare earth minerals, semiconductors, and artificial intelligence, defining the balance of power for decades to come. This isn't a distant geopolitical contest—it's a battle that determines your job, your income, and the price of everything you buy. Inside, you'll discover: · How tariffs, sanctions, and currency wars became the tools of modern warfare. · Why AI, microchips, and green energy are the new front lines of the global economy. · How China's Dual Circulation strategy and America's industrial revival are redefining globalization. · The psychology of economic rivalry—fear, ambition, and national pride driving two superpowers toward confrontation. · What the U.S.–China decoupling means for Europe, Africa, and the Global South. Blending economic analysis, geopolitical storytelling, and psychological insight, Sahly guides readers through the hidden logic of global power shifts. He shows how markets, innovation, and ideology intertwine—and why every citizen, investor, and policymaker must understand this new era of geoeconomic competition. Unlike traditional political books, When Trade Becomes War is written with the precision of a strategist and the clarity of a storyteller. Each page decodes the real motives behind trade wars, revealing how wealth and influence have replaced armies as the instruments of domination. This is not just about China and America—it's about the future of globalization, the rise of regional blocs, and the question that will define our century: Can the world survive a permanent state of economic confrontation?
