First developed in the early twentieth century as a way to use the flows of globalization to defend liberal internationalism, their continuing appeal is that they function as an alternative to war. This view, however, ignores the dark paradox at their core: designed to prevent war, economic sanctions are modeled on devastating techniques of warfare. tracing the use of economic sanctions from the blockades of World War I to the policing of colonial empires and the interwar confrontation with fascism, Nicholas Mulder combines extensive archival research with political, economic, legal, and military history to reveal how a coercive wartime tool was adopted as an instrument of peacekeeping by the League of Nations. This timely study casts an overdue light on why sanctions are widely considered a form of war, and why their unintended consequences are so tremendous."--Provided by publisher 648 7 1900-2099|2fast 650 0 Economic sanctions|xHistory|y20th century 650 0 Economic sanctions|xHistory|y21st century 650 0 International economic relations|xHistory|y20th century 650 0 International economic relations|xHistory|y21st century 650 0 War|xEconomic aspects 650 7 Ekonomi|2sao 650 7 Ekonomisk historia|2sao 650 7 Ekonomiska sanktioner|2sao 650 7 Internationell ekonomi|2sao 650 7 Internationella relationer|2sao 650 7 Krig|xekonomiska aspekter|2sao 650 7 BUSINESS & ECONOMICS / Commerce.|2bisacsh 650 7 Economic sanctions.|2fast 650 7 International economic relations.|2fast 650 7 War|xEconomic aspects.|2fast 655 7 History.|2fast
