| Tiivistelmä: | This paper discusses some of the controversy surrounding the use of international economic sanctions to resolve disputes between countries. The traditional or instrumental approach to sanctions suggest that sanctions work by imposing significant economic damage upon targets, but that such sanctions are rarely successful. In contrast, the public choice approach to sanctions suggests that countries applying sanctions will choose policies that are weak or designed to benefit special interests domestically. However, such sanctions might still achieve their foreign policy ends if they aid the political effectiveness of groups pursuing change in the target. |
