摘要
This article studies cooperation on multilateral economic sanctions. Despite low effectiveness and sanction-busting, multilateral economic sanctions are a popular tool of foreign policy. We explore an instrumental approach to sanctions and develop a game theory framework where sender states face a collective action problem when coordinating multilateral coercion. We indicate that cooperation can be achieved through repeated interactions and reputation. We test empirically the two mechanisms with the TIES data on economic sanctions and adherence to past sanction regimes and the Correlates of War data on membership in International Organizations. Our results indicate that reputation is a strong predictor of cooperation on multilateral economic coercion. The effect of repeated interaction appears conditional on reputation; states with poor reputation positively mediate its effect through repeated interaction.Este articulo analiza la cooperacion en materia de sanciones economicas multilaterales. A pesar de la escasa eficacia y de la violacion de las sanciones, las sanciones economicas multilaterales son una herramienta popular de la politica exterior. Exploramos un enfoque decisivo de las sanciones y desarrollamos un marco de teoria del juego en el que los Estados de origen se enfrentan a un problema de accion colectiva cuando coordinan la coercion multilateral. Indicamos que la cooperacion puede lograrse mediante repetidas interacciones y mediante la reputacion. Comprobamos empiricamente los dos mecanismos con los datos sobre la amenaza y la imposicion de sanciones economicas (TIES, por su sigla en ingles), asi como la adhesion a regimenes sancionadores anteriores y los datos del proyecto Correlates of War sobre la pertenencia a organizaciones internacionales. Nuestros resultados indican que la reputacion es un fuerte predictor de la cooperacion en materia de coercion economica multilateral. El efecto de la interaccion repetida se ve condicionado por la reputacion; los Estados con mala reputacion median positivamente su efecto a traves de la interaccion repetida.Le present article s'interesse a la cooperation dans le cadre de sanctions economiques multilaterales. Malgre qu'elles soient peu efficaces et souvent violees, les sanctions economiques multilaterales restent un outil largement utilise en politique etrangere. Nous nous interessons a l'approche instrumentale des sanctions et developpons un cadre de theorie des jeux dans lequel les etats exportateurs sont confrontes au probleme de l'action collective lors de la coordination de coercition multilaterale. Selon nous, la cooperation est possible au moyen d'interactions repetees et grace a la reputation. Nous testons empiriquement ces deux mecanismes a l'aide des donnees TIES sur les sanctions economiques et le respect des regimes de sanctions imposes par le passe, mais aussi des donnees du projet Correlates of War sur l'adhesion aux organisations internationales. Nos resultats indiquent que la reputation constitue un indicateur important de cooperation en matiere de coercition economique multilaterale. L'effet des interactions repetees semble dependre de la reputation. En effet, les etats jouissant d'une moins bonne reputation en attenuent les effets grace aux interactions repetees.
