Privatising peace: a corporate adjunct to United Nations peacekeeping and humanitarian operations
Patterson, Malcolm Hugh
75,10 €(IVA inc.)
The history of United Nations peacekeeping is largely one of failure. This book puts a case for augmenting ad hoc peacekeepers with competent contract labour; and within the constraints of a new legal regime, supporting future operations with well-trained contractors who might subdue by force those who inflictgross human rights abuses on others.
