DESCRIPTION:A talk by Sharat G. Lin\n\nWhile wars have historically been fought with 
 soldiers and guns, the sole superpower has realized its monopoly ability to 
 wage financial war through sanctions and embargoes against its perceived 
 enemies around the world, such as Iran, North Korea, Cuba, Venezuela, 
 Nicaragua, Russia, Syria, Gaza.  How and why does the United States alone 
 exercise this extraterritorial power to such devastating effect?\n\nDr. 
 Sharat G. Lin is a research fellow at the San José Peace and Justice 
 Center.  He writes and lectures on global political economy, labor 
 migration, the Middle East, and public health.  He has visited most of the 
 countries under U.S. sanctions and studied the consequences of sanctions 
 and embargoes.\n\nOpen to the public\nWheelchair accessible from rear 
 parking lot\n\nCo-sponsored by the San José Peace and Justice Center,
