Economic sanctions - more lethal than war Jacobin 2023-11-21 | Presenting: Episode #3 of “The International,” a world-spanning video series brought to you by Jacobin and the @ProgIntl Economic sanctions have become a favorite US foreign policy tool to confront its adversaries and punish so-called “bad actors” around the world.
