Embargoes: limited effect on economies and broader politics
The article argues embargoes often fail to curb targets and can spur domestic resource development. It cites Britain’s Rhodesia pressure, the 1935-36 Ethiopia oil cutoff, and the 1937 US Spain embargo as examples where aims did not match outcomes. It cautions that in peaceful times without force, embargoes wield political, not reliable economic, influence.
