This book offers the first book-length explanation of the UN's
politics of selective humanitarian intervention. Over the past 20
years the United Nations has imposed economic sanctions, deployed
peacekeeping operations, and even conducted or authorized military
intervention in Somalia, Bosnia, or Libya. Yet no such measures
were taken in other similar cases such as Colombia, Myanmar,
Darfur-or more recently-Syria. What factors account for the UN's
selective response to humanitarian crises and what are the
mechanism that drive-or block-UN intervention decisions? By
combining fuzzy-set analysis of the UN's response to more than 30
humanitarian crises with in depth-case study analysis of UN
(in)action in Bosnia and Darfur, as well as in the most recent
crises in Cote d'Ivoire, Libya and Syria, this volume seeks to
answer these questions.
