Underground Empire by Henry Farrell, Abraham Newman

How America Weaponized the World Economy

"Underground Empire" by Henry Farrell and Abraham Newman delves into the intricate web of global surveillance and control orchestrated by the United States. The book explores how the U.S. has transformed essential global networks, like fiber optic cables and payment systems, into tools of influence and power. Initially developed post-9/11 to combat terrorism, these channels have evolved into mechanisms for exerting economic and political dominance over other nations. Through compelling stories and thorough research, the authors reveal how these seemingly mundane elements of the global economy have become arenas of strategic maneuvering, highlighting the need for vigilance to prevent escalating tensions.
