International Peacekeeping

Paul F. Diehl

Publication Date
Binding Type

In International Peacekeeping, Paul Diehl examines the recent record of United Nations peacekeeping forces and develops criteria for assessing their operations. His analysis provides useful guidance for the management of new hostilities in areas such as Cetral and Eastern Europe, where the dissolution of the Soviet Union has spawned bitter civil wars and dangerous border disputes. The paperback edition includes a new epilogue in which Diehl examines peacekeeping operations in Bosnia, Somalia, and Cambodia.

Reviews

This readable volume was written before the various peacekeeping debacles of 1993 in Somalia and Haiti, but its analysis stands up remarkably well in light of these fast-changing situations... Consideration of [the guidelines for peacekeeping laid out by Paul Diehl] might have saved policymakers considerable grief in the past year.
