=== Smart Sanctions ===
One of the most popular suggestions to combat the humanitarian issues that arise from sanctions is the concept of “smart sanctions”, and a lot of research has been done on this concept also known as targeted sanctions. <ref name=":13">'''''Gordon, Joy. “Smart Sanctions Revisited.” Ethics & International Affairs, vol. 25, no. 3, 2011, pp. 315–335., {{doi|10.1017/S0892679411000323.}}'''''</ref>The term "smart sanctions" refers to measures like asset freezes, travel bans, and arms embargoes that aim to target responsible parties like political leaders and elites with the goal of avoiding causing widespread collateral damage to innocent civilians and neighboring nations.<ref name=":13"/>
 
Though there has been enthusiasm about the concept, as of 2016, the Targeted Sanctions Consortium (TSC) found that targeted sanctions only result in policy goals being met 22% of the time.<ref>'''''Kanji, Laura.
