“Non-state“ sanctions against Russia: Senders, targeting, effectiveness and ethics
In February 2022, Russian Federation invaded Ukraine’s sovereign territory. Since then, there have been efforts to scale up international sanctions against Russia beyond those imposed after the annexation of Crimea. Besides the reaction of a coalition of more than forty states, including the USA and the EU, we have witnessed a rapid spread of “non-state sanctions measures” introduced by businesses, NGOs, education, research and cultural institutions, sports organisations, and even individuals. Although this practice is only in statu nascendi, it has already provoked many questions: Is this an isolated phenomenon or an emerging long-term practice in international relations? Does this practice of non-state actors correspond with international law and the principles of international ethics? How should these measures be designed? What will be the real impacts and implications for Russian politics? The lecture will try to map the current developments and, responding to the above questions, highlight the possible pros and cons of non-state-sanction measures.
