About this episode
This episode of Guerrilla History is a continuation of our Sanctions As War miniseries (check out our earlier episodes from the series if you've not already!). In this episode, we lay out some very interesting historical and analytical parallels between sieges throughout history and modern sanctions regimes. A fascinating conversation with a great scholar and committed anti-imperialist, you don't want to miss this! Be sure to also stay turned for more installments of our Sanctions As War series!
