In Part Five of Irregular Warfare Initiative’s special series examining the unfolding conflict with Iran, Hamlet Yousef (IWI Economic & Legal Warfare Advisor), Ioannis Koskinas (CEO, Hoplite Group), Tom Johansmeyer (Co-Director, IWI Economic & Legal Warfare Group), and Ed Bogan (Founder, Institute for the Study of States of Exception) examine the evolving geoeconomic dimensions of the conflict and the broader ripple effects shaping global markets and strategic competition. Moderated by Jackie Giunta of Irregular Warfare Initiative’s Engagements team, the discussion explores how economic signals—from energy markets to supply chains—are increasingly intertwined with operational realities, and how market reactions are shaping perception as much as policy.
As the conversation unfolds, the panel moves beyond headline-driven analysis to examine deeper structural dynamics, including the economics of asymmetric warfare, the sustainability of cost imposition strategies, and the growing interconnectedness of conflicts across regions. For those seeking to better understand how economic pressure, perception, and global competition are converging, this session offers a grounded and forward-looking perspective.
