Which of the following best completes the passage below?
Economic sanctions that forbid trade with countries with dictatorial governments assume that the dictator will change policies unacceptable to the imposing nation when the country’s citizens lose sufficient access to necessities such as food, water, and clothing. This approach occasionally proves unsuccessful, however, especially when .
a) citizens of the country are accustomed to being poor
b) the dictator has ideological reasons for maintaining national policy
c) the country imposing the sanctions relies on exports from the subject country
d) the dictator is not moved by the suffering of his people
e) citizens of the country do not understand the leader’s policies
----------------------------------------
I find this question highly unreal. No dictator is ever moved by the suffering of his people (cite: Kim Jong il or Mubarak), and no economic sanction succeeds by appealing to the dictator's emotion ! Economic sanctions work mostly because the people of the sanctioned country revolt, not because they suffer. I choose b) ,which is actually the most common cause of embargo failures for the past century.
