The Sword and the Shield: The economics of targeted sanctions

開催案内

The Russia-Ukraine War of 2022 has unleashed the most comprehensive sanctions regime against Russia in recent memory. However, questions remain as to how effective they would be? Dr. Ahn shall discuss his research into the effects of the previous US-EU sanctions regime from 2014 to 2016, the first study using detailed firm and individual-level data to precisely measure the empirical impact of targeted sanctions. Dr. Ahn shall describe his findings, his hypothesis into the mechanisms on how sanctions work, how the target responded, their policy implications, and some lessons for today and for future sanctions regimes.
