Andrew Dorman introduces Sierra Leone as Blair's second great
military adventure after Kosovo and the first he undertook on his
own. It is tied to Blair's 1999 Chicago speech on the 'Doctrine of
the International Community', his move towards humanitarianism and
the impact of the Kosovo experience. The book links this move with
the rise of cosmopolitan militaries and the increasing involvement
of Western forces in humanitarian operations and their impact on
the international system. Furthermore, it places it within the
context of defence transformation and the emerging Western
expeditionary capabilities, in particular the European Union's new
battle group concept and developments in concepts such as Network
Centric Warfare and Networked Enabled Capability. Examining the
whole campaign and considering the impact on the Blair Government,
this book will prove to be a key reader on the topic.
