How do boycotts differ from sanctions? Should boycotters target all of the country's products, or should they focus on a restricted set of sectors? I answer these questions in a canonical Ricardian model. The model allows me to determine the optimal targeted boycott strategies and trace out the Pareto frontier of the domestic boycotters' and foreign country's welfare.PPN: PPN: 1882874021Package identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-1-CEPPNo physical items for this record
