This remarkable book documents every known incident of Chinese economic coercion since 1997—by the authors’ count, more than 500 cases affecting 475 companies and 18 governments in 44 countries. Cha and his coauthors also present in-depth strategies to counter this coercion. It’s an invaluable resource for policy makers and researchers around the world who are seeking to counter Beijing’s economic coercion while also preserving the liberal world order. -- Bethany Allen, author of <i>Beijing Rules: How China Weaponized Its Economy to Confront the World</i> The authors have provided a fascinating account of how China has used its vast and intertwined trade networks to advance its own interests—and use these same commercial ties to undermine the industries and businesses of its global rivals. Cha, Kim, and Lim also provide essential recommendations about how like-minded nations can band together to create collective resilience in the face of China’s sustained challenge. -- Kurt M. Campbell, former deputy secretary of state and Indo-Pacific coordinator at the National Security Council (2021–25)
