DESCRIPTION:We used to take trade for granted. Trillions of dollars of goo
 ds and services crossed borders each year. Nobody paid too much attention:
  it just worked.\n\nNow\, surging oil prices can hit your mortgage. Trump
 ’s latest tariff announcement can crash markets and ruin your pension. B
 rexit can sever Britain from its closest trading partners. Chinese restric
 tions can bring the West’s car production to a crashing halt. Curbs on t
 rade in cutting-edge chips could determine who wins the AI race. The stake
 s couldn't be higher.\n\nJoin authors Soumaya Keynes and Chad Bown\, in co
 nversation with Professor Emily Jones\, as they discuss their new book How
  To Win a Trade War: A Friendly Guide to an Unfriendly World.\n\nIn this i
 rreverent guide\, Keynes and Bown explore the history\, players\, and rule
 s of trade\, asking how we prepare for what the future might hold. Could t
 rade wars lead to hot wars? What can the West learn from China? How should
  countries defend their economies?\n\nTimely\, funny and informative\, How
  to Win a Trade War argues that the old system is dead. But what will emer
 ge in its place? And ultimately\, what is at stake for you\, your country\
 , and your company?\n\nThe event is followed by a drinks reception.
