Forecasting International Interdependence and Conflict.

Abstract

This memorandum considers interdependence as a concept for trying to understand the connections between economic activity and national security. The author believes that interdependence can be a force for peace or conflict. He views the most critical issue associated with interdependence as whether it will change to a world of economies organized for economic conflict and controlled by national security anxieties. He concludes that this negative movement is already underway as seen in tendencies toward protectionism and economic nationalism.
