Description

Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2011 in the subject Politics - International Politics - Region: Africa, grade: A-, Ewha Womans University (Graduate School of International Studies), course: International Political Economy, language: English, abstract: This paper examines the impact of the sanctions imposed on Zimbabwe. It provides an in-depth analysis of the effects of targeted sanctions in compelling the targeted group to act favorably. The paper scrutinizes the nature of the targeted sanctions and gives empirical evidence on how their impact has been severely curtailed by non participation of other nations, lack of clarity, inconsistencies in implementation and challenges on the legitimacy of the sanctions among other issues. This article also goes further to analyze the spillover effects of the targeted sanctions particularly on the economic and social service sectors. The article argues that despite the weaknesses inherent in the nature of these sanctions and their spillover effects, the sanctions have facilitated better aid management that has resulted in successful implementation of aid projects without sidelining the government and without the donors being meddled in political squabbles.
