Book Synopsis International Sanctions in Practice by : Antonio Bultrini
Download or read book International Sanctions in Practice written by Antonio Bultrini and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-08-02 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses key aspects relating to the use of international sanctions by assembling contributions from different fields of expertise with a view to providing readers with an interdisciplinary perspective. Unilateral or plurilateral restrictive measures, commonly referred to as “sanctions”, by States or regional organizations have been acquiring an enormous practical importance in the last decades, leading also to the institution of a European Union’s sanctioning mechanism of its own. In addition to that, the war in Ukraine, triggered by the Russian aggression, has given them an unprecedented visibility, including in the mainstream media. The matter nevertheless remains particularly complex, given its diverse implications from a legal as well as from an economic-financial point of view, and not least in a political perspective. This book follows up the workshop that was held at the University of Florence on 9-10 December 2021 and collects original contributions from promising or acclaimed, leading experts on sanctions. Each part of the book is devoted to three main themes: legality and legitimacy; extraterritorial implications; and effectiveness. These parts consist of a “dialogue” between experts from different fields. The book explores the legal basis of sanctions and how this impacts their legitimacy and the perception of their legitimacy. It considers the complex implications of the extraterritorial effects that sanctions often produce or are even intended to produce, as well as how effective they are in relation to different underlying aims. It is hardly possible to tackle such key questions through a unique disciplinary lens. This book thus represents an invitation to scholars, experts and decision-makers to adopt an interdisciplinary approach that can no longer be eluded.

Book Synopsis Economic Sanctions in International Law and Practice by : Masahiko Asada
Download or read book Economic Sanctions in International Law and Practice written by Masahiko Asada and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-11-07 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Providing perspectives from a range of experts, including international lawyers, political scientists, and practitioners, this book assesses current theory and practice of economic sanctions, discussing current legal and political challenges faced by the international community. It examines both the implementation of sanctions by major powers – the United States, the European Union, and Japan – as well as assessing the impact of those sanctions through case studies of Russia, Iran, Syria, and North Korea. Balancing theoretical analysis of legal considerations with national and regional level empirical analysis, it also includes coverage of sanctions issues by the UN Security Council and the EU, as well as the extraterritorial application of sanctions. A valuable reference for academics and practitioners, Economic Sanctions in International Law and Practice will be useful to those working in the fields of international law, diplomacy, and international political economy.
Book Synopsis Targeting Peace by : Mikael Eriksson
Download or read book Targeting Peace written by Mikael Eriksson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-01 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent years, the international community has increasingly come to abandon the use of comprehensive sanctions in favour of targeted sanctions. Unlike adopting a coercive strategy on entire states, actors like the United Nations (UN) and the European Union (EU) have come to resort to measures that are aimed at individuals, groups and government members. Targeted sanctions involve adopting measures such as asset freezes, travel bans, commodity sanctions, as well as arms embargoes. Eriksson argues that recent changes in the practice of sanctions from comprehensive to targeted sanctions requires a new way of understanding international sanctions practice. Not only do we need to rethink our methodology to assess recent practice, but also to rethink the very theory of sanctions. This valuable new perspective provides recent thinking on targeted sanctions, trends in practice and unique case studies for evaluation. Based on substantial research, this is a must-read for students, scholars and practitioners interested in international politics.
Book Synopsis Coercive Sanctions and International Conflicts by : Mark Daniel Jaeger
Download or read book Coercive Sanctions and International Conflicts written by Mark Daniel Jaeger and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-11 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps the most common question raised in the literature on coercive international sanctions is: "Do sanctions work?" Unsurprisingly, the answer to such a sweeping question remains inconclusive. However, even the widely-presumed logic of coercive sanctions – that economic impact translates into effective political pressure – is not the primary driver of conflict developments. Furthermore, existing rationalist-economistic approaches neglect one of the most striking differences seen across sanctions conflicts: the occurrence of positive sanctions or their combination with negative sanctions, implicitly taking them as logically indifferent. Instead of asking whether sanctions work, this book addresses a more basic question: How do coercive international sanctions work, and more substantially, what are the social conditions within sanctions conflicts that are conducive to either cooperation or non-cooperation? Arguing that coercive sanctions and international conflicts are relational, socially-constructed facts, the author explores the (de-)escalation of sanctions conflicts from a sociological perspective. Whether sanctions are conducive to either cooperation or non-cooperation depends on the one hand on the meaning they acquire for opponents as inducing decisions upon mutual conflict. On the other hand, negative sanctions, positive sanctions, or their combination each contribute differently to the way in which opponents perceive conflict, and to its potential transformation. Thus, it is premature to ‘predict’ the political effectiveness of sanctions simply based on economic impact. The book presents analyses of the sanctions conflicts between China and Taiwan and over Iran’s nuclear program, illustrating how negative sanctions, positive sanctions, and their combination made a distinct contribution to conflict development and prospects for cooperation. It will be of great interest to researchers, postgraduates and academics in the fields of international relations, sanctions, international security and international political sociology.

Book Synopsis United States Economic Sanctions:Theory and Practice by : Michael Malloy
Download or read book United States Economic Sanctions:Theory and Practice written by Michael Malloy and published by Springer. This book was released on 2001-05-29 with total page 772 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The growing use of U.S. and multilateral economic sanctions--and the increasing and controversial attention such measures are attracting internationally--create a need for a detailed legal analysis of the subject and its policy implications for both U.S. practitioners and their counterparts in other countries. The expanding field of sanctions is especially worthy of close scrutiny as it generates significant (and often inadvertent) influence on finance and trade. Increasingly, lawyers and business people involved in international transactions must take account of the risks, both actual and potential, inherent in compliance with economic sanctions on trading partners. This major new work, a completely revised successor edition to the author's much-cited Economic Sanctions and U.S. Trade, shifts the main emphasis from the mechanics of applying foreign policy objectives to a careful and complete articulation of what those goals are or ought to be--an approach that leads inevitably to a concrete methodology for assessing the effectiveness of sanctions. In the process the book examines such salient characteristics of the current and developing sanctions regime as the following: the growing prominence of U.S. Congressionally-mandated sanctions programs; the complex interaction of economic sanctions and trade policy; and the marked increase in multilateral sanctions programs in which the U.S. is a participant. In-depth analysis of major U.S. sanctions programs (those imposed on Cuba, Libya, and Iraq, as well as several other lesser programs) presents numerous hypothetical but realistic international scenarios, demonstrating their working-out under the practical application of specific elements of each sanctions program.
Book Synopsis International Sanctions by : Peter Wallensteen
Download or read book International Sanctions written by Peter Wallensteen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2005 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main theme of the book is that the new types of sanctions constitute a challenge to the international system. First, there are more of the targeted sanctions, including financial, travel, aviation, special commodity and arms sanctions. Furthermore, there are considerable but varied practices in implementation. Also there are now sanctions by new actors (regional bodies, international organizations). These all put new strains on international bodies in carrying out sanctions or getting member states to work together in these efforts. These challenges are analyzed in this volume, with some examples, but mostly from a generalist perspective. A completely novel aspect is that this volume also includes studies of the difficulties that are met by targeting actors, their way of managing the situations, and most interesting, the human rights of such actors.

Book Synopsis A Strategic Understanding of UN Economic Sanctions by : Golnoosh Hakimdavar
Download or read book A Strategic Understanding of UN Economic Sanctions written by Golnoosh Hakimdavar and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-08 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economic Sanctions are increasingly used as a legal, non-military technique of combating abusers of international peace. However it remains unclear how the success or failure of these sanctions is measured. This book examines the seldom-explored United Nations’ economic sanctions deliberation process and exposes systematic problems in the measurement of the success or failure of these sanctions. Centering on the key concepts of "peace and security," the author brings the reader’s attention to the discrepancies that exist in the process of decision-making, implementation, and evaluation of UN imposed economic sanctions. She engages international law and development methods to provide proof for the lack of consensus in measures of success and failure, which in turn suggests that sanction implementation on a uniform domestic front are unattainable. This thorough analysis concludes with suggestions for improving the sanctions process, only to clear the path for negating them as a whole and suggest alternative non-coercive measures for mitigating conflict situations and threats to peace and security.
Book Synopsis A Comparative Appraisal of Normative Power by : Ville Sinkkonen
Download or read book A Comparative Appraisal of Normative Power written by Ville Sinkkonen and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2015-06-24 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In A Comparative Appraisal of Normative Power Ville Sinkkonen constructs a three-pronged analytical framework for the analysis of normative power, a theoretical concept recently associated with studying the international role of the European Union. This toolkit allows him to compare the foreign policy conduct of the EU and the United States in the context of the January 25th, 2011 Revolution in Egypt along three dimensions: ‘norms and identity’, ‘means’ and ‘paradoxes’. These components permit an in-depth analysis of Western norm promotion in the midst of the upheaval, building on a large pool of source documents. The monograph broadens the remit of normative power through its empirical bent, comparative research set-up and focus on a swiftly unfolding revolution/transition complex. In the process, the prevalent discourse of the EU as a benign international actor is subjected to rigorous analytical scrutiny.

Book Synopsis Innovative Flanders by : National Research Council
Download or read book Innovative Flanders written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2008-10-16 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recognizing that innovation is the key to international competitiveness in the 21st century, policymakers around the world are seeking more effective ways to translate scientific and technological knowledge into new products, processes, and businesses. They have initiated major programs, often with substantial funding, that are designed to attract, nurture, and support innovation and high-technology industries within their national economies. To help U.S. policymakers become more aware of these developments, a committee of the National Academies' Board on Science, Technology, and Economic Policy undertook a review of the goals, concept, structure, operation, funding levels, and evaluation efforts of significant innovation programs around the world. As a part of this effort, the committee identified Flanders, a region of Belgium with substantial autonomy, which is recognized for its comprehensive approach to innovation. Based on initial meetings in Washington and Brussels, and with the endorsement of Flanders Vice Minister-President Fientje Moerman, it was agreed to organize a conference that would review regional innovation policies in the context of the policies and programs of the Flanders government, and their interaction with those of the European Union. This book provides a summary of that symposium.
