Research Handbook on Economic Sanctions

Edited by Peter A.G. van Bergeijk, Professor of International Economics and Macroeconomics, International Institute of Social Studies, Erasmus University, The Hague, the Netherlands

‘The Handbook is an exemplary interdisciplinary work in an area that remains at the heart of economic relations among states where the mechanical tool of statecraft constitutes a form of politics among nations. The authors and editor dissects the major policy approaches and empirical data available on economic sanctions to show how new knowledge and sanctions can be better appreciated. The Handbook on Economic Sanctions thus provides a vivid insight into an area in international policy that will support further research from a variety of fields.’
