This book offers an examination of the effectiveness of Western
military interventions in the post-Cold War era. It constitutes a
comprehensive, interdisciplinary analysis of the conditions,
conduct and consequences of post-Cold War armed conflicts, in which
Western states, acting as a multinational coalition, were engaged
in a combat role as an intervening force, not as an impartial
peacekeeper. The volume identifies and analyses the causes,
justifications and goals of the interventions, as well as the
results of such engagements. The main objective is to assess the
effectiveness of the military actions of Western states in these
armed conflicts. Apart from the chapters devoted to particular
conflicts - such as the Gulf War, the Balkans, Afghanistan, Iraq
and Libya - it also includes chapters in which experts summarise
the legal, political, military and economic implications of all
such Western-led interventions. As a result, the book helps us to
understand why these military interventions happened, how they were
executed and what the results were. Taking into account the impact
of these military expeditions on global security, the book offers
an explanation for some of the central questions concerning the
current shape of international order and power distribution on a
global scale. This book will be of much interest to students of
military and strategic studies, conflict studies, foreign policy
and International Relations.
