After years of paralysis, the 1990s saw an explosion in the number
of United Nations field operations around the world. In terms of
scope and level of ambition, these interventions went beyond the
tried and tested principles of classical UN peacekeeping. Indeed,
in some cases - such as Cambodia, Kosovo and East Timor - the UN
presence assumed the form of quasi-protectorates designed to steer
war-torn and deeply divided societies towards lasting peace. This
book examines the UN's performance and assesses the wider impact of
'new interventionism' on international order and the study of
international relations. Featuring eight case studies of major UN
interventions and an introductory chapter outlining the most
important theoretical and political features of the international
system which have led to the increased interventionary practices of
the UN, this book will appeal to students and researchers in
international relations and international organizations.
