The statement " Sanctions don't work" is an often-heard refrain.
The reality, though, is more complex. Sanctions--mostly economic
but also political and military penalties aimed at states or other
entities to alter political and/or military behavior--almost always
have consequences; sometimes desirable, at other times unwanted and
unexpected. What cannot be disputed, though, is that economic
sanctions are fast becoming the policy tool of choice for the
United States in the post-Cold War world. Indeed, economic
sanctions are increasingly at the center of American foreign policy
as a policy tool to resolve several issues: to stem the
proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, promote human rights,
discourage aggression, protect the environment, or thwart drug
trafficking. Drawing heavily on eight case studies--Iraq, Iran, the
former Yugoslavia, Haiti, Pakistan, China, Libya, and Cuba--this
book presents lessons to be learned from recent American use of
economic sanctions. It also provides specific guidelines designed
to shape future decisions by Congress and the executive branch.
