Since the first edition of this book was published in 2010, United
Nations peace operations have evolved significantly. In the
Democratic Republic of the Congo, Central African Republic, and
South Sudan, UN peacekeepers are now engaged in building peace by
fighting non-State armed actors, and must consider issues
concerning the application of law and policy governing the use of
armed force when protecting civilians. In addition, the UN and its
peacekeepers are increasingly being held to higher standards of
accountability to ensure that their engagement with local forces
and populations meets normative requirements found in international
humanitarian law and international human rights law. This
extensively revised edition of Documents on the Law of UN Peace
Operations addresses the key normative principles, rules, and
standards that have been a part of this evolution. The book
provides essential documents, accompanied with commentary, which
identify and explain the legal framework or applicable legal norms
involved in the planning, management and conduct of UN peace
operations. Topics covered include obligations under international
humanitarian law, human rights law, international criminal law, and
privileges and immunities. Special attention is also paid to
matters such as accountability, the rule of law, and the protection
of civilians.
