Evolution: intervention and humanitarianism from collective security to peacekeeping -- After the cold war: a new world order? -- Sovereignty and community: a 'responsibility to protect'? -- Africa: post-colonial intervention amidst fragile statehood -- Humanitarian intervention and coercive action: the Balkans -- A model intervention? The birth of Timor Leste -- Is it worth it? Success and failure in UN intervention.
ملخص:Explores the UN's track record of military action, from cold war 'brushfire' peacekeeping to the fractured globalisation of the contemporary world. The author assesses armed humanitarian intervention on a region-by-region basis, from the Balkans to Africa, the Middle East to Southeast Asia. Using empirical evidence, he compiles a 'balance sheet' of the UN's successes and failures and asks hard questions about humanitarian intervention's short and long-term value. Case study chapters on sub-Saharan Africa, the Balkans and East Timor Confronts hard questions about the short and long-term value of these interventions.
