Description

In a fractured global order where markets move faster than nations can react, this case asks a radical question: who truly controls a country’s economic destiny? The Mercantilist Rebellion follows governments caught between open borders and guarded industries, between invisible hands and deliberate design. Drawing on real-world strategies from rising powers and historic development models, this packet explores how trade, currency, and investment become tools of sovereignty rather than forces of fate. Students are equipped to argue not about wealth alone, but about control, choice, and survival in a system where the rules are uneven and the future belongs to those who retain the power to decide.
