The future of the Iran Nuclear Deal may be uncertain, but there are countless lessons learned regarding the design and implementation of sanctions. Just in time before the Congress makes a decision on the future of this deal, join us for a discussion with Richard Nephew, Senior Research Scholar at SIPA's Center on Global Energy Policy, and Jessica Schulberg, a DC-based Foreign Policy and National Security reporter from HuffPost, as they explore practical guidance on how to measure and respond to the two critical factors of pain and resolve in the service of strong and successful sanctions regimes.

Richard’s new book, The Art of Sanctions: A View from the Field (Center on Global Energy Policy Series,) which addresses the Iran sanctions effort from 1996-2013 in the broader context of U.S. policy-making, will be released to the public on 12/12/17. Through our partner Columbia University Press, we will have a limited number of this groundbreaking book on hand for sale at the event with 40% discount! Don't miss the chance to come and get your own copy.
