Identify and describe the five different types of economic sanctions as described in the text. Provide an example for each. Which of these is the most effective? The least effective? How might one explain variations in the effectiveness of different types of sanctions?
What will be an ideal response?
Answers should identify the following types of sanctions: boycott, embargo, divestment, frozen assets, and suspension of foreign aid. Answers regarding the effectiveness of these sanctions will vary but should address some of the challenges posed by sanctions: they do not have an immediate impact, they do not target the correct audience (and the impact on the civilian population), the utility of multilateral versus unilateral measures, and a need for a combination of “carrots” and “sticks.”
