Abstract/Artist's Statement

This paper explores the evolving landscape of the global trade market and trade dynamics by evaluating the effects of economic sanctions. The paper analyzes the subject via data collection projects and research material, such as research papers, news articles, and journal articles. The results convey that economic sanctions have adverse effects that reverberate beyond the intended target, thus causing initiatives that reshape the global economic landscape. In addition, the analysis demonstrates that challenges arise for countries that popularly use trade controls, such as the United States, whose total share of the global market has decreased, alongside the rise in foreign superpowers and regional economic blocs. The future of the international market remains uncertain; however, the growth of new economic powers, like China, South Korea, Brazil, and India, potentially accelerates economic realignment and reduction in the global economic dominance of the United States.
