When foreign actors threaten U.S. interests or values, our leaders are pressured to do something. That “something” is often the application of economic sanctions on offending persons, organizations, and countries. Dozens of individuals and entities are now under U.S. sanctions, complicating commerce for companies operating internationally, but with dubious effect in achieving political objectives. Joseph Harrington describes the origin and evolution of economic sanctions and suggests proposals for alternative approaches.NSSC Members $15\ Non-Members $20
