Is Galtung’s pessimism about sanctions still warranted today? @geraldschneider.bsky.social revisits the question with evidence on economic sanctions from 1949–2023. It shows that Galtung’s scepticism still matters for today’s sanctions politics. 🔗 doi.org/10.1093/jogs...

The evidence shows that sanctions were more likely to achieve their goals after 1989. The essay is part of a special issue on Galtung’s academic work, which I am editing together with Nils Petter Gleditsch. More on this will follow soon once the introduction (and the other SI pieces) are published.

New article on Johan Galtung´s 1967 article on sanctions against Rhodesia out at @journalofgss.bsky.social. I argue that the controversial peace scholar’s pessimism regarding sanctions was partly a product of his time.

Street-level bureaucrats keep discretionary power elsewhere in this domain. The differences within the same state are especially troublesome. Not all Länder collect data on their citizenship decisions. Germany remains a "data desert". Replication data are here: search.gesis.org/research_dat...
