Book The Art of Sanctions

Download or read book The Art of Sanctions written by Richard Nephew and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2017-12-12 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nations and international organizations are increasingly using sanctions as a means to achieve their foreign policy aims. However, sanctions are ineffective if they are executed without a clear strategy responsive to the nature and changing behavior of the target. In The Art of Sanctions, Richard Nephew offers a much-needed practical framework for planning and applying sanctions that focuses not just on the initial sanctions strategy but also, crucially, on how to calibrate along the way and how to decide when sanctions have achieved maximum effectiveness. Nephew—a leader in the design and implementation of sanctions on Iran—develops guidelines for interpreting targets’ responses to sanctions based on two critical factors: pain and resolve. The efficacy of sanctions lies in the application of pain against a target, but targets may have significant resolve to resist, tolerate, or overcome this pain. Understanding the interplay of pain and resolve is central to using sanctions both successfully and humanely. With attention to these two key variables, and to how they change over the course of a sanctions regime, policy makers can pinpoint when diplomatic intervention is likely to succeed or when escalation is necessary. Focusing on lessons learned from sanctions on both Iran and Iraq, Nephew provides policymakers with practical guidance on how to measure and respond to pain and resolve in the service of strong and successful sanctions regimes.

Book National Implementation of United Nations Sanctions

Download or read book National Implementation of United Nations Sanctions written by Vera Gowlland-Debbas and published by Martinus Nijhoff Publishers. This book was released on 2004 with total page 683 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is a comparative study of domestic implementation of Security Council mandatory sanctions taken under Article 41, Chapter VII of the UN Charter, including the establishment of the two international criminal tribunals, the ICTY and ICTR, and recent resolutions on the combating of the financing of terrorism. The book examines implementation in 16 select States in Europe, America, Asia, the Middle East and Africa, underlining also the particular problems arising from sanctions implementation by the European Union, by a permanently neutral and former non-Member State - Switzerland - and by States confronted with special economic problems within the meaning of Article 50 of the UN Charter. Three interrelated themes are addressed. The first, of a theoretical nature, concerns the question of whether implementation of Security Council resolutions, particularly where perceived to be in fulfilment of community objectives, poses problems which are in some way distinct from those raised by the implementation of other conventional international law obligations, thereby shedding a different light on the traditional relationship between international and municipal law. The second concerns the effectiveness of the decisions of the Security Council viewed from the perspective of the effective mise en oeuvre of these decisions in national law. The third theme concerns the legitimacy of Security Council resolutions as seen from the viewpoint of domestic legal systems, that is the extent to which Security Council decisions encroach on internationally or constitutionally protected individual rights and the potential role played by domestic courts in reviewing the decisions of the Security Council.The latter has assumed particular importance in the framework of the combating of the financing of terrorism. This work, which brings together the research results of 29 academics and experts, is the second publication within the framework of a project on Security Council sanctions carried out under the auspices of the Graduate Institute of International Studies. The first, which looked at a broad set of issues, was entitled "United Nations Sanctions and International Law" and was published by Kluwer Law International in 2001.

Download or read book Economic Sanctions in International Law and Practice written by Masahiko Asada and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-11-07 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Providing perspectives from a range of experts, including international lawyers, political scientists, and practitioners, this book assesses current theory and practice of economic sanctions, discussing current legal and political challenges faced by the international community. It examines both the implementation of sanctions by major powers – the United States, the European Union, and Japan – as well as assessing the impact of those sanctions through case studies of Russia, Iran, Syria, and North Korea. Balancing theoretical analysis of legal considerations with national and regional level empirical analysis, it also includes coverage of sanctions issues by the UN Security Council and the EU, as well as the extraterritorial application of sanctions. A valuable reference for academics and practitioners, Economic Sanctions in International Law and Practice will be useful to those working in the fields of international law, diplomacy, and international political economy.

Book United Nations Sanctions and International Law

Download or read book United Nations Sanctions and International Law written by Vera Gowlland-Debbas and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-11-15 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The reactivation of the Security Council at the beginning of the last decade has resulted, since the invasion of Kuwait by Iraq on August 2, l990, in increasing use of its powers under Chapter VII of the Charter and the adoption of measures against a number of state and non-state entities. The notion of a threat to the peace has now come to encompass violations of fundamental norms of international law such as human rights and humanitarian law, and the wide-ranging measures adopted have included such innovations as the establishment of the UN Compensation Commission or that of the two international criminal tribunals for Former Yugoslavia and Rwanda. These measures have not only infringed on the legal rights of the targeted state (sometimes with irreversible effects where they have remained in force over a long period of time) and its population, but also on those of implementing states and of private rights within these states. The current debate over the legitimacy and long-term effects of economic sanctions on states and their populations makes it imperative to re-evaluate this instrument and the broader peace maintenance function of the Security Council in the light of current community concerns. Part One of this book addresses the theoretical issues by focussing on: 1) The place of sanctions in the international legal system; 2) the limits to the powers of the Security Council and the question of accountability; and 3) an assessment of the alternatives to collective economic sanctions. Part Two looks at the relationship between sanctions and humanitarian issues, examining the relationship between: 1) Sanctions and human rights law; 2) sanctions, humanitarian issues and mandates; and 3) sanctions and humanitarian law. Part Three focuses on implementation by states of Security Council sanctions resolutions by examining: 1) Sanctions and private rights; and 2) special problems for implementing states. Part Four addresses the future in reassessing the place and ethics of sanctions in an international legal system which is giving increased importance to the individual. This work is based on papers presented at a colloquium of the Graduate Institute of International Studies in Geneva.

Book International Sanctions  Monetary and Financial Law Perspectives

Download or read book International Sanctions Monetary and Financial Law Perspectives written by Chiara Zilioli and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2024-08-01 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The monetary and financial dimensions of economic sanctions have become critical components of sanctions strategies. A wider range of monetary and financial assets, entities (including central banks), and services are now targeted. Financial institutions, infrastructures, regulators and central banks play an increasingly influential role in shaping sanctions channels. Furthermore, sanctions may have significant impacts on financial obligations. This book, prepared under the auspices of the International Monetary Law Committee of the International Law Association (Mocomila), is the first to focus on the unexplored financial and monetary law aspects of economic sanctions and examine their impact on central banks and payment systems.

Book International Sanctions

Download or read book International Sanctions written by Christopher Anglim and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This guide is an introduction to the basic doctrines, institutions, and methodology of international sanctions, as it provides an overview of legal and operational capacity requirements for effective sanctions implementation by nation-states and international organizations--effective border control, well-organized and monitored financial systems, secured travel documents identification system, migration controls, legal and administrative capacities commensurate with the complexity of sanction regimes, and the capacity for international cooperation in the implementation and enforcement of sanctions. Many nations have used sanctions or have had sanctions imposed against them or their citizens. Nation-states have also often used sanctions to impose economic rather than armed force. As such, sanctions have been commonly used in foreign relations, peacekeeping, and conflict resolution. In addition to providing an explanation on the importance of the topic, this guide provides research methodologies into the purposes, types, and targets of sanctions. It goes into specifics on the many UN sanctions passed from the Cold War era up to the present, and explains the administrative framework for U.S. sanctions and all the departments and agencies that can be involved. It lists the requisite sources to consult, including primary and secondary material and databases.--Publisher.

Download or read book International Sanctions written by Carina Staibano and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2005-02-18 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main theme of the book is that the new types of sanctions constitute a challenge to the international system. First, there are more of the targeted sanctions, including financial, travel, aviation, special commodity and arms sanctions. Furthermore, there are considerable but varied practices in implementation. Also there are now sanctions by new actors (regional bodies, international organizations). These all put new strains on international bodies in carrying out sanctions or getting member states to work together in these efforts. These challenges are analyzed in this volume, with some examples, but mostly from a generalist perspective. A completely novel aspect is that this volume also includes studies of the difficulties that are met by targeting actors, their way of managing the situations, and most interesting, the human rights of such actors.

Book Coercive Diplomacy  Sanctions and International Law

Download or read book Coercive Diplomacy Sanctions and International Law written by Natalino Ronzitti and published by Martinus Nijhoff Publishers. This book was released on 2016-03-11 with total page 347 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores sanctions as instruments of coercive diplomacy, delving into theoretical arguments and combining perspectives from international law and international relations scholars and practitioners. Primary questions include the compatibility and legitimacy of sanctions regimes, enforcement measures, including the role of sanctions committees, the practice of circumventing sanctions, and the relation with the ICC proceedings. Legal and institutional aspects of the practice of the European Union are addressed. The extraterritorial effects of national legislation implementing sanctions imposed by individual States are investigated. A focus is on the impact of sanctions on non-State actors. The connections with the protection of human rights and the adverse impact on individual rights are considered. The implementation of sanctions is addressed in view of their legal limitation and the concept of proportionality, their consequences upon existing treaties and contracts, their effectiveness, and their strategic implications.

Book International Sanctions in Practice

Download or read book International Sanctions in Practice written by Antonio Bultrini and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-08-02 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses key aspects relating to the use of international sanctions by assembling contributions from different fields of expertise with a view to providing readers with an interdisciplinary perspective. Unilateral or plurilateral restrictive measures, commonly referred to as “sanctions”, by States or regional organizations have been acquiring an enormous practical importance in the last decades, leading also to the institution of a European Union’s sanctioning mechanism of its own. In addition to that, the war in Ukraine, triggered by the Russian aggression, has given them an unprecedented visibility, including in the mainstream media. The matter nevertheless remains particularly complex, given its diverse implications from a legal as well as from an economic-financial point of view, and not least in a political perspective. This book follows up the workshop that was held at the University of Florence on 9-10 December 2021 and collects original contributions from promising or acclaimed, leading experts on sanctions. Each part of the book is devoted to three main themes: legality and legitimacy; extraterritorial implications; and effectiveness. These parts consist of a “dialogue” between experts from different fields. The book explores the legal basis of sanctions and how this impacts their legitimacy and the perception of their legitimacy. It considers the complex implications of the extraterritorial effects that sanctions often produce or are even intended to produce, as well as how effective they are in relation to different underlying aims. It is hardly possible to tackle such key questions through a unique disciplinary lens. This book thus represents an invitation to scholars, experts and decision-makers to adopt an interdisciplinary approach that can no longer be eluded.
