Farrell and Newman skillfully weave a tale of individuals, powers, circumstances and forces, showing how the rise and rise of world-is-flat rah-rah globalism created a series of irresistable opportunities for "#WeaponizedInterdependence." Some players of the game wield these weapons like a scalpel; others (like Trump) use them like a club.

_very_ niche, but when going through old email, I found the very first piece that @ANewman_forward and I wrote on #WeaponizedInterdependence, way back in 2015. It was a draft FA article on privacy fights - nearly all the WI discussion was edited out https://www.dropbox.com/s/hek8zzw9uypnfcj/SafeHarborFA%2810192015%29%20for%20submission.docx?dl=0
