South Africa worked about as well as Iraq- The problem isn't so much
corruption as it is US sanctioned, legal corruption. Congress allows
US corporations like IBM and Halliburton to set up shell companies
that can circumvent trade restrictions with these countries. If we
were serious about enforcing sanctions, such things would not be
allowed.
The sanctions in South Africa worked. It toppled the government. However sanctions usually end up hurting the people the most that they intend to help, at least in the short term.
