Markets and Conflict: Economics of War and Peace explores the causes, impacts and linkages of contemporary geopolitics, markets and conflict, along with their economic impacts on all stakeholders. The book compiles the most current research and insights about market behaviors during conflicts of different types and severity, detailing how markets actually respond and what readers can do to implement a proactive early-response strategy. Whenever a global or regional conflict occurs, markets of every sort react based on fears which are largely unfounded. The book illustrates that preconceived notions can be self-fulfilling prophecies when they occur.
