About the book: 1983 / The main purpose of the book is to characterize the mechanism of modern international economic relations in the capitalist world, which caused an unprecedented escalation of the trade war at the turn of the 80s. The book shows the aggressive strategy and tactics of monopolies in the global market, their new offensive means of competition, massive abuses, coercion of partners and veiled robbery. The contradictory role of Western governments in this struggle is examined - forcing exports and curbing imports, sharply aggravating trade rivalry and turning clashes between monopolies into a continuous chain of interstate conflicts.
