What is the difference between the IEC61000-4-11 and -14 standards?  Is one
more stringent than the other?

The descriptions from the IEC web page sound similar:
-------
IEC 61000-4-11 (1994-06)
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) - Part 4: Testing and measuring techniques
- Section 11: Voltage dips, short interruptions and voltage variations immunity
tests
This standard defines the immunity test methods and range of preferred test
levels for electrical and electronic equipment connected to low voltage power
supply networks for voltages dips, short interruptions, and voltage variations.
It applies to electrical and electronic equipment having a rated input current
not exceeding 16 A per phase. It does not apply to electrical and electronic
equipment for connection to d.c. networks or 400 Hz a.c. networks. 
-------
IEC 61000-4-14 (1999-02)
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) - Part 4-14: Testing and measurement
techniques - Voltage fluctuation immunity test

Applies to electrical and/or electronic equipment that have a rated input
current up to 16 A per phase. Aims to establish a reference for evaluating the
immunity of electric and/or electronic equipment when subjected to positive and
negative low amplitude voltage fluctuations. Only conducted phenomena are
considered, including immunity tests for equipment connected to public and
industrial power supply networks. 
Has the status of a Basic EMC publication.
