Simultaneously, the Trump administration is pivoting to a 15% global tariff strategy after the Supreme Court struck down its emergency trade powers.
Political scientist Abraham Newman identifies a shift from neoliberal globalization to 'weaponised interdependence,' where centralized economic hubs serve as tools for state coercion. Under the second Trump administration, this 'neo-royalist' order leverages control over critical technologies and financial systems to enforce geopolitical objectives.
