The Trade Trap
How To Stop Doing Business with Dictators
Simon & Schuster, 2023
Aperçu
Appeasement didn’t work in the 1930s, and it’s not working now, says media mogul Mathias Döpfner.
Recommendation
In this page-turner, publishing titan Mathias Döpfner lays out a bleak view of the world. China and Russia have fully embraced totalitarianism, he notes, and they want to bring Europe and the United States into the autocratic abyss. Döpfner, head of global media giant Axel Springer, makes a compelling case that the West must choose between appeasing Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping and stopping the strongmen. The West has already ostracized Russia, but China – factory to the world, crucial export market and major investor in US Treasury bonds – presents a far more difficult challenge.
