Abstract: This note examines the extensive use of economic sanctions in US foreign policy, a development that has grown extensively in the last four decades without regard to presidential leadership. The issues surrounding sanctions include their definition, history, and effectiveness. Distinctions between kinds of sanctions are noted, as well as the consequences of their use, along with difficulties in employing sanctions. Finally, a moral assessment of the practice of sanctions is offered.
