Podcasts about World economy

Economic sanctions are the big geoeconomic bazooka. But what does history tell us about how well they work, and their relevance today. And does the theory match the data? Moritz Schularick of the Kiel Institute for the World Economy and CEPR talks to Tim Phillips about the evidence of the history of sanctions on what they can achieve, whether we expect too much too soon from small sanctions – and whether politicians are prepared to impose the sanctions that bite.

Chinese Premier Li Qiang has urged the Group of 20 economies to stay committed to solidarity, firmly uphold free trade and build an open world economy in the face of a sluggish global economic recovery.

This is Episode 1 of our new series, "Are We Still Living in the Shadow of Colonialism?" This episode calmly decodes the complex economic systems—like international debt, trade imbalances, and structural adjustment programs—that replaced formal colonies. The goal is not blame, but understanding. We then explore powerful solutions, from the rise of fair-trade movements and local-first economies to major debt-forgiveness campaigns, all aimed at building true economic independence.

How should America choke enemies like Iran, Russia and China? Not on the battlefield—according to Edward Fishman, that's yesterday's game. Today, Fishman argues in Chokepoint, America has turned the world economy into its weapon of global domination. In his bestseller, already shortlisted for the FT's best business books of the year, Fishman reveals that 21st century American power relies on economic warfare. From Treasury Department lawyers weaponizing the dollar-based financial system to Silicon Valley's semiconductor stranglehold, sanctions, export controls and financial coercion have replaced military force as America's primary tools of statecraft. Every U.S. president this century has doubled their predecessor's use of sanctions—a staggering escalation that has fundamentally reshaped the global economic order and may ultimately lead to less interdependence and, paradoxically, more military conflict. But what about Trump's tariffs? According to Fishman, Trump has made two critical errors: weaponizing America's economic power against allies like Europe, Canada and India rather than just adversaries, and relying on import tariffs—where the U.S. controls only 13% of global imports—instead of the true chokepoints where America dominates 90% of foreign exchange transactions and 80% of advanced AI chips. So it is Trump himself who has choked rather than successfully choking America's enemies. 1. Every US President This Century Has Doubled Sanctions Usage The escalation is relentless and bipartisan: from George W. Bush to Obama to Trump's first term to Biden, each administration imposed sanctions at twice the rate of their predecessor—revealing economic warfare as a defining trend of 21st century American power, not a partisan aberration.2. The Dollar System is America's True Superweapon The US doesn't need naval blockades anymore. Because the dollar is involved in 90% of global foreign exchange transactions, America can choke off countries like Iran simply by threatening banks, oil traders, and refineries worldwide with exclusion from the dollar-based financial system—making economic warfare both more powerful and more invisible than traditional military force.3. Trump Weaponized the Wrong Tools Against the Wrong Targets Trump broke with predecessors in two critical ways: he's using economic warfare against allies (Europe, Canada, India) not just adversaries, and he's relying on tariffs where the US controls only 13% of global imports instead of leveraging the true chokepoints—the dollar (90% of forex) and semiconductors (80% of advanced AI chips)—where American dominance is overwhelming.4. Economic Warfare Isn't Bloodless—It Creates Real Human Suffering Sanctions designed for coercion must inflict broad macroeconomic harm: inflation, currency debasement, unemployment. Fishman warns against treating these tools as cost-free alternatives to military action—they should only be deployed when vital national security interests are at stake, like stopping Russian imperialism in Ukraine, not for routine diplomatic leverage.5. The “Geoeconomic Impossible Trinity” Means Decoupling is Inevitable Only two of three factors can coexist: economic interdependence, economic security, and geopolitical competition. Since US-China and Europe-Russia rivalry isn't disappearing, interdependence must unravel over the next decade. The danger: when countries can't secure resources through trade, history shows they turn to conquest and imperialism—meaning economic warfare could paradoxically lead back to military conflict.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

Meeting the WTO Director-General in Rio de Janeiro, Chinese Premier Li Qiang says China stands ready to work with the international community to get the world economy back on track at an early date.

Tariffs and geopolitical conflicts have created uncertainty around the world. But how does the new trade environment affect inflation and the economy? How can central banks adapt? And what is the potential impact on the dominance of the US dollar ? In the third episode of our special Sintra series of the ECB Podcast, our host Paul Gordon talks to London School of Economics Professor Silvana Tenreyro. The views expressed are those of the speakers and not necessarily those of the European Central Bank. Published on 4 July 2025 and recorded on 1 July 2025. In this episode: 01:30 How is the world economy doing? What developments are having an impact on our economy today? And what uncertainties are arising from tariffs, trade fragmentation and armed conflicts in different parts of the world? 03:30 Tariffs, trade fragmentation and the economy How can trade tariffs and fragmentation affect economic growth and inflation in the euro area and beyond? 06:25 How are prices changing? How are prices changing in different countries? Will tariffs cause prices in the United States to rise, and those in Asia and Europe to fall? And why? 07:55 Lessons for central banks Given the extremely high level of uncertainty, what lessons from past shocks can central banks apply in the future? Why do we need clearly defined frameworks? And what role do governments play? 09:55 How can governments prepare for potential shocks? Investing in technologies that are difficult to substitute, diversifying energy sources and creating buffers for critical inputs – why it's crucial that governments have a strategy to withstand various shocks. 12:05 What is a dominant currency? When is a currency considered internationally “dominant”? And what dominant currencies have there been in the past? 13:40 Dollar dominance and monetary policy transmission Does dollar dominance in international trade transactions reduce the effectiveness of monetary policy? 17:30 The future of dollar dominance How will the dominance of the US dollar develop in the future? Is its role as a primary reserve currency at risk due to the Trump Administration's policies? 19:10 What keeps you up at night? What happens to our economy if there is a sudden shortage of a certain input? What impact will AI have if it remains largely unregulated? And what do stablecoins and digital currencies mean for our economy? 21:00 Our guest's hot tip Silvana shares her hot tip with our listeners.

With the major geopolitical powers squaring up to each other, tariffs on trade and political turmoil, is it time for economics to focus more on the consequences for the world economy of great power rivalry? A new paper defines the emerging field of geoeconomics, reviews the existing research, and sets out an agenda to fill the gaps in what we know. Christoph Trebesch of the Kiel Institute for the World Economy & Cathrin Mohr of Bonn University talk to Tim Phillips about how economists can collaborate with other disciplines to find fresh insights in this under-researched discipline.  Download CEPR discussion paper 19856, Geoeconomics https://cepr.org/publications/dp19856

John is joined by longtime Wall Street eminence and former “car czar” Steve Rattner to discuss the impact of Donald Trump's tariff jihad on global financial markets and the American economy. Rattner explains why the theory of the case animating Trump's protectionist agenda is “disjointed,” “illogical,” and “incoherent,” and its execution has been even worse; why the reputational damage the U.S. is suffering as a result among its allies around the world will be difficult to undo; why the claims by Trump's advisers that last week's abrupt policy shifts were all part of some master plan are ludicrous on their face; and why the endgame of the full-scale trade war now underway with China is impossible to foresee. Rattner also assesses the degree of fiscal irresponsibility Republican budget plan making its way through Congress—and whether the chickens may finally be about to come home to roost when it comes to America's unprecedented debt and deficits.

AP Washington correspondent Sagar Meghani reports another Trump tariff pause may be coming.

It’s been a wild week as President Trump has completely reset the entire world’s economy. With a bold tariff approach that caused a massive sell-off, we’re already seeing the brilliance in this move. Markets are bouncing back and we may be on the verge of a huge move for Bitcoin. Volatility is likely to continue, and perhaps the Fed will decide to lower interest rates sooner than imagined. Are we truly entering the Golden Age of the United States of America, and what does it mean for crypto?

Trump is destroying the world economy, with global markets diving because of his ridiculous tariffs. Even mega-turd Ben Shapiro said the tariffs are probably unconstitutional and based on backward logic regarding trade deficits. AOC trounces Chuck Schumer in a new poll about a possible primary matchup. Looks like the the felon-in-chief is listening to loony Laura Loomer again. Trump is losing support of the libertarians due to his insane warmongering and attacks on free speech. Babbling conspiracy theorist Russell Brand caught some UK sexual assault charges from four different victims. Among today's "Not A Migrant Or Drag Queen" sex criminals were a charged South Carolina pastor and a sentenced former North Dakota Republican state senator.

[00:30] Trump Tariffs Trigger Bible Prophecy (39 minutes) Worldwide trade war places human nature's get-focused competitive spirit fully on display. The Trump administration has enacted tariffs to salvage the U.S.'s long-term economic health, hoping to bring manufacturing home and encourage other nations to lower tariffs on U.S. goods. However, most of our former economic allies have retaliated with their own high tariffs, triggering a tit-for-tat tariff war. [39:45] WorldWatch (4 minutes) [43:30] A Functionally Illiterate Generation (12 minutes) America's youth are no longer proficient in even the basics of education, devoting their time instead to technology and TikTok. True education requires work.

After weeks of cosying up to Donald Trump, the UK has still been hit with 10% tariffs on exports to the US, which is bad news for the economy and the public finances. So, how tough could things get for Britain? And how should Keir Starmer's government respond? John Harris asks the former UK ambassador to the US Kim Darroch and the Guardian columnist Polly Toynbee.

From September 20, 2023: Economic warfare isn't a new concept. Protectionist policies, asymmetrical trade agreements, currency wars—those are just a few examples of the economic levers states have long used to control outcomes. But in their new book, two political scientists, Henry Farrell and Abe Newman, argue that a technological innovation spurred on by free market embracers and coopted by the U.S. was an accidental entry point into a new era of economic statecraft—an era whose precise contours and rules are still being ironed out today, as we are fighting in a so-called economic war. Lawfare Associate Editor Hyemin Han talked to them about how this weaponization came to be, how U.S. national security objectives are bleeding into economic warfare, and what policymakers might focus on in trying to ensure that the economic web that the U.S. currently sits at the center of is not ravaged by its own power.

When Chancellor Olaf Scholz fired his finance minister, Christian Lindner this month, Germany's ‘traffic light' government collapsed, an uneasy coalition between parties with differing perspectives, the Social Democrats, the Greens and the Free Democrats.At the heart of the dispute lie deeply opposing views about spending plans and how to fund much needed investment in infrastructure projects such as transport, education, green energy and digital technology, in order to boost Germany's international competitiveness.Falling demand both domestically and overseas for manufacturing goods, the pandemic, war in Ukraine and high energy costs have weakened Germany's economy. So how can Germany reinvigorate its exports and economic growth? On this episode of The Inquiry, we're asking: Does Germany need to reinvent itself?

Donald Trump has promised to fix what he calls a broken economy and usher in a “golden age of America.” He's vowed to implement record tariffs, slash regulation, and deport millions of undocumented immigrants. But what will that mean practically for America's economic future? On the GZERO World Podcast, Ian Bremmer is joined by Oren Cass, founder and chief economist at the conservative think tank American Compass, to discuss Trump's economic agenda and why Cass believes it will help American workers and businesses in the long run. Mass deportations, he says, will lead to a tighter labor market that will force employers to raise wages and increase working conditions. He also argues that steep tariffs are the only way to level the playing field with China, which has “flouted any concept of a free market or fair trade” for decades. However, many economists warn that Trump's plan will lead to rising inflation and a global trade war. So what's the biggest argument for an America first economic agenda? Will it really lead to long-term benefits for workers? Oren Cass makes his case.Host: Ian BremmerGuest: Oren Cass Subscribe to the GZERO World with Ian Bremmer Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred podcast platform, to receive new episodes as soon as they're published.

On this week's episode of Economic Update, Professor Richard Wolff draws attention to the 10,000 hotel workers who recently conducted a strike impacting major hotels across 19 US cities. We highlight the contested merger of the two largest grocery chains in America. Albertsons and Kroger threaten to become the third largest retail giant after Amazon, and Walmart plus the Canadian government forces 9000 Canadian railway striking workers back to work, with murmurs of a general strike looming. We also give a shout-out to a small Brooklyn pizzeria unionizing with Starbucks workers.  Finally, an exclusive interview with world-renowned economist, politician, author, and the former finance minister of Greece Yanis Varoufakis discusses global economic change and the working class, topics discussed in his latest work "Technofeudalism: What Killed Capitalism".
