Abstract
The article argues the United States requires a coordinated Integrated Economic Statecraft Strategy to counter China's influence and compete effectively in developing markets, particularly Africa. Snow contends China's approach bundles commercial, diplomatic, and security objectives into coherent campaigns, while U.S. efforts remain fragmented across agencies.
