A gazdasági szankciók politikai hatékonysága
THE POLITICAL EFFECTIVENESS OF ECONOMIC SANCTIONS

Summary/Abstract: There has been a debate for decades among scholars and policymakers whether economic sanctions are effective or not. The effectiveness of restrictive measures are often disparaged and regarded as an unproductive foreign policy tool. Despite this pessimism in the literature, states around the world, especially the United States, have been increasingly applying economic statecraft against other countries in order to achieve their foreign political objectives.
