Kerr Acting Deputy Director for Intelligence SUBJECT Study of the Use and Effect of Econ Sanctions Requested by Judge Clark I 1. Action Requested: Your signature on a reply to a memorandum from Judge Clark requesting the Agency to undertake a historical and conceptual study of the use of economic sanctions and their effect in a variety of political settings. 2. Background: On 7 August Judge Clark requested that the Agency undertake a broad based study of the use of economic sanctions and their effect in a variety of political settings. I have assigned to the Office of Global Issues responsibility for undertaking this study. I expect the study to be completed in early November. Case studies, crucial to the heart of the analysis, will be undertaken by various DDI regional offices. OGI analysts, in addition to putting the final paper together, will complement these studies by a series of interviews with government and ex-government officials involved in past sanctions and individuals who have analyzed and written on this topic. OGI discussions with Norm Bailey, Senior Director, National Security Planning, NSC, indicate a decided preference for an in-depth analysis over a quick response. Dr. Bailey had no problem with the early November delivery date cited in your letter to Judge Clark. Richard J.
