- Boycott----Refusal to buy from a company or country - A boycott is often consumer initiated action. For example 1: A person refuses to buy a brand after learning the company uses child labor. Example 2: A person refuses to buy anything not made in the USA and encourages their friends to join the boycott.
- Embargo---- A government's policy restricting all trade with a particular country. This is often used as leverage to make a country agree to a treaty or some worldwide concern or complaint against the country.
- Trade Sanction--- A government's policy restricting imports or exports. This can be used even about minor disputes or as a display of power and to nudge the country to respond to a demand or request. If a government imposes enough sanctions, one country can severely affect Another Country's economy unless the sanctioned country has other resources, for example, Cuba since the 1960s.

Can un security council sanction trade embargo on the countries which fail to adopt resolution passed by them?
They can proclaim embargoes and sanctions, but the UN has no military forces; military forces have to be provided by nations. The nations involved can enforce the sanctions or ignore them, or anything in between. If some nation wants to enforce sanctions and embargoes, and another nation wants to evade these actions, then there's a potential for military conflict. For example, if the UN were to impose sanctions on Russia and an embargo on Crimea, any attempt of the USA to enforce embargo would likely lead to conflict. That's why Barack Obama has proposed only incredibly tiny and ineffectual sanctions on Russia; Vladimir Putin wouldn't stand for it. With the rapidly declining American military and the expansion of Russian military might, if push came to shove, the USA would suffer an embarrassing defeat and humiliation. And both Putin and Obama know it.

What is the difference between embargo and sanction?
Embargoes are the complete ban or prohibition of trade by one country with other. Under embargoes, no goods or services can be imported or exported from or to the embargoed nation. For example, the U.S. currently has a trade embargo with Cuba (except in limited circumstances, such as the export of food and agricultural products to Cuba). Sanctions are the trade prohibition on certain type of products, services or technology to another country due to various reasons, including nuclear non-proliferation and humanitarian purposes. Sanctions could also be considered as "partial embargoes" as they restrict trade in certain areas. For example, the U.S. has trade sanctions with North Korea that prohibit the export of any material that would help N.Korea in its Nuclear or any other mass destruction or weapons related program. In practical terms, comprehensive trade sanctions can have practically the same effect as an embargo. Fr example, Cuba is the only country currently subject to a total trade embargo by the U.S. However, the U.S. also maintains comprehensive trade sanctions against N. Korea, Syria, Sudan and Iran that prohibit virtually all types of financial transactions with entities from those countries, thereby having a similar practical effect as the embargo against Cuba. Sanctions also can be more limited and target only certain groups of individuals, such as the sanctions maintained by the U.S. against former members of the Charles Taylor regime in Liberia.
