The Economic Statecraft Program (ESP) is an academic research program that serves as both a nexus and a catalyst for advancing foundational and cutting edge work in the area of economic statecraft.
ESP acts as an intermediary nexus convening across US government actors, academics, commercial entities to advance practice and understanding at the intersection of economics and security.
ESP is an active catalyst designed to advance the state-of-the-art understanding of economic tools of national power.
ESP serves as a force multiplier in economic statecraft through direct collaboration in the design, education, and implementation of sustainable US economic statecraft strategy and policy.
The Economic Statecraft Program operates as the hub of economic statecraft thought, connecting spokes across academic and policymaking communities. By supporting dialogue between academic scholars and practitioners in working groups or actively shaping conversations on economic statecraft through publication, the Economic Statecraft Program remains on the cutting edge of research and decision making in foreign economic policy and grand strategy.
