The Sanctions Paradox Paperback: Economic Statecraft and International Relations: 65 (Cambridge Studies in International Relations, Series Number 65) - Softcover

'The Sanctions Paradox is one of the best books written in the field of international political economy during the 1990s. It offers a simple but clever theory that explains when states are likely to employ economic sanctions and when they are likely to work. Since sanctions seem destined to remain a favourite tool of statecraft in the 21st century, this book is likely to be paid serious attention for years to come.' John Mearsheimer, University of Chicago
