About this ebook

""Sanctions and Conflicts"" explores the multifaceted role of economic sanctions in international relations, examining whether they truly serve as diplomatic tools or function as acts of economic warfare. The book delves into the strategic deployment of sanctions, their impact on targeted states, and their broader consequences for global stability. It highlights that while sanctions are often presented as non-violent alternatives to military intervention, they can inflict significant harm on civilian populations, potentially exacerbating conflicts and undermining democratic institutions.

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.
