IPSR Special Issue: Regional Sanctions and the Struggle for Democracy
Publication date: Wed, 06 Oct 2021
The latest issue of the International Political Science Review (IPSR) for September 2021 has been published (Volume 42, Number 4). This special issue, entitled Regional Sanctions and the Struggle for Democracy, contains eight research papers on the subject.
Regional organisations (ROs) around the world increasingly use sanctions against member states in situations of democratic crisis. This special issue unpacks the trend of RO sanctions in regions that are both democracy-dense (Europe and the Americas) and autocracy-dense (Africa, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East).
