title: Waging Financial Warfare: Why and How
abstract: This article introduces financial warfare as a valuable and innovative tool for deterring the sponsors of the "little green" and "little blue men" of proxy warfare. By analyzing the economic terrain, financial trace, nodes, and edges of a sponsor's financial networks, US policymakers can develop, plan, and deliver financial deterrence necessary to support international stability as well as to persuade or coerce an adversary by increasing the costs of their wars.
