Approaches economic sanctions as a form of statecraft in order to
study the oft used but not well understood policy from a different
perspective. The chapters examine a variety of cases involving the
use of economic threats and promises. Their authors come from both
academic and policy making fields, as well as different
disciplinary backgrounds (political science and economics). They
apply different research approaches (case studies, statistical
analysis, formal economics) to increase our understanding of the
sanction puzzle.
Economic sanctions have become an increasingly popular instrument of foreign policy. They have been used with increasing incidence to discourage or punish a variety of objectionable practices--such as terrorism, ethnic cleansing, nuclear proliferation, human rights abuses--by states and multilateral organizations such as the UN and NATO. Yet much controversy characterizes the debate about both the motivations behind the initiation of economic sanctions and the consequences following from their imposition. This collection of essays seeks to illuminate this debate through a combination of different methodologies and cases.
Economic sanctions: panacea, symbolic but ineffectual, or useless
and counterproductive? While these questions have framed much the
existing debate, Drury digs deeper to why foreign policy leaders,
and especially the president, choose sanctions, of which type,
whether to sustain them, and when to terminate them. Skilfully
integrating domestic and international factors, and placing the
analysis of sanctions directly into the mainstream of strategic
studies and decision theory, this book breaks new ground with its
innovative argument and thorough testing using a variety of
databases.
