Klappentext zu „Humanitarian Intervention and the United Nations “
In "Humanitarian Intervention and the United Nations," MacQueen explores the UN's track record of military action, from cold war 'brushfire' peacekeeping to the fractured globalization of the contemporary world. He assesses armed humanitarian intervention on a region-by-region basis, from the Balkans to Africa, and 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.
