Sanctions and Conflicts

Did you know that nations increasingly employ economic coercion as a primary foreign policy tool? Case studies, like those of Iran, Russia, and Venezuela, illustrate the economic, social, and political impacts, including trade disruption and humanitarian consequences.

The book adopts a multidisciplinary approach, drawing from economics, political science, and international relations. It progresses from laying the theoretical groundwork to exploring specific case studies and finally synthesizing evidence to assess the effectiveness and ethical implications of sanctions. By using a combination of quantitative data, such as trade statistics and GDP growth rates, and qualitative assessments from policy documents, ""Sanctions and Conflicts"" offers a nuanced perspective on the debates surrounding economic sanctions and their role in contemporary global politics.
