Abstract

Economic sanctions have been a prominent part of American statecraft since World War II, and increasingly so since the end of the Cold War. Sanction usually consists of a ban on the sale and shipment of products to a country and on the purchase of its exports. Our objective is to conduct a comprehensive empirical analysis of US economic sanctions on Iranain high tech industries by means of fuzzy logic approach. We will measure US sanction effects on Iranian high tech industries and rank high Iranian tech industries based on their vulnerability from US sanction. Our methodology is based on these steps: determining attributes of US sanction affected on Iranain high techs’, filtering selected attributes through fuzzy hypothesis test, and ranking of alternatives through Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchical Process (FAHP).
