Constantinos Syropoulos on Sanctions Objectives - Dictionary of Arguments
Morgan I 4 Sanctions/Data base/Morgan/Syropoulos/Yotov: (…) the Global Sanctions Data Base identifies sanction cases on the basis of three distinct characteristics/dimensions related to type, sender, and objective. For example, cases are classified according to six sanction types: trade sanctions, financial sanctions, travel restrictions, arms sanctions, military assistance sanctions, and “other” sanctions, which do not fall into any of the main categories. There are nine sanction objectives, including changing policy, destabilizing regimes, resolving territorial conflicts, fighting terrorism, preventing war, ending war, restoring and promoting human rights, restoring and promoting democracy, and other objectives. Finally, for all sanctions that have been terminated/lifted, the Global Sanctions Data Base assigns a success score that corresponds to each sanction objective and varies from “total success” to “partial success”, “settlement,” and “failure.”* >Sanctions, >Sanctions consequences, >Sanctions debate, >Sanctions effectiveness, >Sanctions evasion, >Sanctions history, >Sanctions policies, >Sanctions theory, >Trade sanctions, >Financial sanctions. * The Global Sanctions Data Base is constructed from publicly available sources and cross-checked against other databases. Two prominent examples are the Hufbauer-Schott-Elliott sanctions database, (Hufbauer, Schott, and Elliott 1990(1); Hufbauer et al. 2007(2)) and the Threat and Imposition of Economic Sanctions (TIES) database (Morgan, Bapat, and Krustev 2009(3); Morgan, Bapat, and Kobayashi 2021(4)) which also includes sanction threats. For definitions, examples, and additional details on the Global Sanctions Data Base, see Felbermayr et al. (2020)(5), Kirilakha et al. (2021)(6), and Syropoulos et al. (2022)(7). The Global Sanctions Data Base is freely available to researchers, although access must be requested by email at GSDB@drexel.edu. Details are available at http://www.globalsanctionsdatabase.com/ 1.
