Chapter 8 in International Sanctions in Contemporary Perspective, 1987, pp 110-123 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract It was noted in the previous chapter that where compliance is the objective the most economical use of sanctions would be the case where a threat was sufficient to induce the target to admit and correct the error of its ways. If sanctions are imposed, cost and dislocation for all will be minimised if speedy compliance follows. But in the cases of sanctions examined in this study the typical response of the target has been negative. Allegations of wrong-doing have not been accepted and a determined effort has been made to resist, circumvent and overcome the effects of deprivation. Even when mandatory sanctions were imposed by the United Nations, the Rhodesian regime rejected its authority.
