Abstract:
|
In 2003 Libya abruptly announced the end of its WMD programs, a decision which has led to rapprochement with the US. What caused this change? Some argue that fear of military intervention swayed Libya. This paper, however, will examine the use of economic sanctions and incentives by the West. It will argue that years of sanctions effectively shifted the regime's baseline expectations to the point that the restoration of normal trade and investment ties became a powerful positive incentive, which was largely responsible for the regime's new policies. This paper will examine the interplay between negative and positive economic linkage, arguing that when sequenced properly the two can work more effectively in concert than either can separately. |
