Dangerous Diplomacy reassesses the role of the UN Secretariat
during the Rwandan genocide. With the help of new sources,
including the personal diaries and private papers of the late Sir
Marrack Goulding-an Under-Secretary-General from 1988 to 1997 and
the second highest-ranking UN official during the genocide-the book
situates the Rwanda operation within the context of bureaucratic
and power-political friction existing at UN Headquarters in the
early 1990s. The book shows how this confrontation led to a lack of
coordination between key UN departments on issues as diverse as
reconnaissance, intelligence, and crisis management. Yet Dangerous
Diplomacy goes beyond these institutional pathologies and
identifies the conceptual origins of the Rwanda failure in the gray
area that separates peacebuilding and peacekeeping. The difficulty
of separating these two UN functions explains why six decades after
the birth of the UN, it has still not been possible to demarcate
the precise roles of some key UN departments.
