Summary/Abstract: The end of the Cold War removed the restrains on unilateral and especially on joint action for international peace and security that had been imposed by major power rivalry for more than four decades. From then on the United Nations, EU, NATO and other great international actors were activated in ways that hitherto were politically inconceivable. This was also reflected in the theory and practice of sanctions as the tool of contemporary diplomacy and technology of global governance. That is why this article presents investigation within the problem of sanctions efficacy. Especial attention is paid on conceptual background of the question, either the results of sanctions reform processes (Interlaken, Bonn-Berlin, Stockholm meetings).
