Description

The Sanctions Paradox: Economic Statecraft and International Relations by Daniel W. Drezner

This 1999 book explores why nation-states initiate economic sanctions, and what determines their success. Drezner argues that the use of economic coercion is influenced by a complex interplay of factors, including expectations of future conflict and short-run opportunity costs.

Through game theory and statistical analysis, as well as detailed case studies, Drezner reveals how adversaries and allies approach sanctions in different ways, often with unexpected outcomes. This thought-provoking work sheds new light on the complex dynamics of international relations and economic statecraft.
