The European Union, the United Nations, and the United States frequently use economic sanctions. This article introduces the EUSANCT Dataset—which amends, merges, and updates some of the most widely used sanctions databases—to trace the evolution of sanctions after the Cold War. The dataset contains case-level and dyadic information on 326 threatened and imposed sanctions by the EU, the UN, and the US. We show that the usage and overall success of sanctions have not grown from 1989 to 2015 and that while the US is the most active sanctioner, the EU and the UN appear more successful.

欧盟，联合国和美国对冷战后的制裁：引入EUSANCT数据集

欧盟，联合国和美国经常使用经济制裁。本文介绍了EUSANCT数据集，该数据集可以修改，合并和更新一些使用最广泛的制裁数据库，以追溯冷战后制裁的演变。该数据集包含有关326种受到欧盟，联合国和美国威胁和施加的制裁的案件级和二进式信息。我们表明，从1989年到2015年，制裁的使用和总体成功率并未增长，而美国是最活跃的制裁者，而欧盟和联合国似乎更成功。
