HEGEMONY AND SANCTIONS: THE SIGNIFICANCE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN US HEGEMONY AND US ECONOMIC SANCTIONS IN THE COLD WAR

Summary/Abstract: Economic sanctions are preferred by states as a coercive foreign policy tool. During the Cold War, the United States of America (US) frequently used economic sanctions. In addition, the economic sanctions imposed by the US differ from the economic sanctions applied by other states in terms of quality and quantity. In this context, the study is aimed at “Is there a significant difference between the hegemony of the US and the economic sanctions applied by the US during the Cold War?” focused on the question. In the study, categorical variables were created to analyse a statistically significant relationship between US hegemony and economic sanctions. In the direction of these categorical variables, crosstabulation and chi-square independence test analysis were applied to 230 economic sanctions imposed by the US on target countries during the Cold War (1945-1990). A statistically significant relationship emerged between the hegemony periods of the US and the foreign policy objectives of the economic sanctions, the nature of the sanctions and the target regions. In addition, a statistically significant relationship was determined between the nature of the sanctions and the scales of the target region and target country.
