Since the mid-1990s the United Nations and other multilateral
organizations have been entrusted with exceptional authority for
the administration of war-torn and strife-ridden territories. In
Bosnia and Herzegovina, Eastern Slavonia, Kosovo, and East Timor
these organizations have assumed responsibility for governance to a
degree unprecedented in recent history. These initiatives represent
some of the boldest experiments in the management and settlement of
intra-state conflict ever attempted by third parties. This book is
a study of recent experiences in the international administration
of war-torn territories. It examines the nature of these operations
- their mandates, structures, and powers - and distinguishes them
from kindred historical and contemporary experiences of
peacekeeping, trusteeship, and military occupation. It analyses and
assesses the effectiveness of international administrations and
discusses, in thematic fashion, the key operational and political
challenges that arise in the context of these experiences. It also
reflects on the policy implications of these experiences,
recommending reforms or new approaches to the challenge posed by
localized anarchy in a global context. It argues that, despite many
of the problems arising from both the design and implementation of
international administrations, international administration has
generally made a positive contribution to the mitigation of
conflict in the territories where they have been established. This
major new work from a leading scholar provides a comprehensive
treatment of recent attempts at international governance of
war-torn territories, and will be essential reading for anyone
interested in peace-keeping operations and international
administration.
