Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

IGOs, particularly the United Nations, implemented various coercive economic measures against South Africa's apartheid government in the 1980s, such as economic sanctions and embargoes. These measures were effective in putting pressure on the government to end the apartheid regime, ultimately leading to the release of Nelson Mandela and transition to democracy. However, it was not the first case of humanitarian intervention using force, and there were disputes among UN members in implementing these measures.
