Reviews
A fresh look at US interventions from a different angle... DiPrizio's controversial conclusions challenge some widely held beliefs and therefore can be expected to spark an animated debate that hopefully will help us to understand better one important aspect of humanitarian interventions.
This is a clearly written and easy to follow account of American humanitarian interventions in the post—Cold War era, focusing on the motivations for Presidents Bush and Clinton to intervene or (as in the case of Rwanda) not to intervene in response to a humanitarian crisis. The strength of the book lies in its readability and comprehensiveness.
