English | ISBN: 1350036439 | 2018 | 320 pages | PDF | 8 MB

This transnational volume also reveals and develops a range of insightful connections between the themes it covers, as well as between different groups within Europe and different countries and regions, including Western and Eastern Europe, the Ottoman Empire and colonial territories. It is a vital study for all students and scholars of the First World War.

Peace Enforcement The United Nations Experience in Congo, Somalia, and Bosnia
Free Download Jane Boulden, "Peace Enforcement: The United Nations Experience in Congo, Somalia, and Bosnia"
English | 2001 | pages: 177 | ISBN: 0275969061 | PDF | 30,3 mb
The United Nations is being called upon more and more to participate if situations that fall somewhere between peacekeeping and full-scale enforcement operations, such as those in Korea during the 1950s and the Persian Gulf in 1991. Such efforts have come to be termed as peace enforcement operations. Three case studies in which the United Nations used this type of force are examined: the early 1960s UN operation in the Congo (ONUC); the UN operations on Somalia (UNITAF and UNOSOM); and the mission in Bosnia (UNPROFOR). Until now, no single investigation had considered these three case studies from the viewpoint of determining the advantages and disadvantages involved in using peace enforcement as a way of dealing with international peace and security issues.
