Manipulating the Market

By David M. Rowe

Subjects: International economic relations, Economic sanctions, Case studies

Description: "Manipulating the Market provides a new, more fruitful way to study economic sanctions. Instead of asking the traditional question "Do sanctions work?" it uses neoclassical economic theory, the insights of new institutional economics, and an intensive analysis of sanctions in five major Rhodesian markets to explain the more important problem of how target governments and private actors respond to the imposition of economic sanctions."--BOOK JACKET.
