    Book, Praeger Security International, 2006
  • Description

    The widely lamented massacres of innocent civilians under UN Peacekeeper eyes in Rwanda, Srebrenica, and the Congo influenced neither the UN’s approach nor the analysis of the methods. Secondly, it is widely believed that the peacekeepers are allowed to apply force only in self-defense and lack the authorization to use it in defending UN Security Councils mandates. Finally it exposes how the UN peacekeeping syndrome of “soldiers safety first” crept into the NATO’s strategy and compromises its missions in Kosovo and Afghanistan.
