This article applies David Baldwin's concept of economic statecraft in five case studies of East‐West relations, ranging from the period directly following the Russian revolution, to the more recent Central European revolutions of 1989–90. It tries to answer the questions whether economic statecraft has been a helpful concept in analyzing the usefulness and efficacy of economic instruments, and whether economic power has been successfully applied in East‐West affairs. It argues that Western policies applying economic power vis‐à‐vis the East have at least been partially successful, and that the concept of economic statecraft is certainly a useful analytical tool in studying the successfulness of economic influence attempts
