Geo-economic Resilience: Collective Measures Against the Weaponisation of External Dependencies in the NB8 Region

New publication in the NB8 Policy Brief Series by Thorsteinn Kristinsson (IIA) and Ludvig Broomé (UI)

Geo-economic competition and the coercive use of economic statecraft are supplanting the rules-based system of liberal economic exchange. Small economies like the NB8 states are vulnerable to this development, including the potential weaponisation of external dependencies against them. This policy brief proposes measures for NB8 states to prepare for such scenarios and suggests collective policies to enhance geo-economic resilience in the region.
