She dissects the multidimensional impact of sanctions on Haitian society by examining the economic devastation and social dislocation that they provoked, despite the mitigation of humanitarian exemptions consistently granted by the Security Council. Gibbons also examines the counterproductive, unpredictable effects that sanctions have had on Haiti's nascent democratic institutions and processes. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDrawing on contemporary research of noted academics and international legal experts, this analysis places Haiti's experience of sanctions in a wider context. From the Haiti case, Gibbons draws conclusions about the utility of comprehensive sanctions as an instrument for the advancement of democracy and human rights and recommends measures that policymakers may find better suited to achieving these objectives.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Elizabeth Gibbons\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0275966070\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780275966072\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Praeger\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/30\/1999\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.51lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.34d","brand":"Elizabeth Gibbons","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47001119260927,"sku":"9780275966072","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2f8af14a-600f-4083-bd86-8e5c10ef13c4.jpg?v=1751600121","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/sanctions-in-haiti-elizabeth-gibbons-9780275966072","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
