1. The economic relationship between the coercer and the target is highly asymmetrical in terms of vulnerabilities.
2. Alternative sources of supply or markets are readily available to the target.
3. The target does not have the technology or resources to fashion substitutes for those items it can no longer import from the coercer.
4. The costs of applying the sanctions to the coercer are significantly less than those suffered by the target.
5. There is little international sympathy for the government of the target.
6. The attempts at economic coercion are coupled with other techniques of statecraft.
7. The economy of the target is already weak, characterized by high unemployment, low investment, severe inflation, and the like.
