Humanitarian Intervention and Peacekeeping - PICT915

Since the First World War, the dominant international trend has been to restrict greatly the use of international force to self defence. Since the end of the Cold War there has been a revival of the old concept of humanitarian intervention when it is deemed a state cannot protect or indeed is threatening its own citizens. In addition, there had been a major expansion in multilateral peacekeeping operations usually under the auspices of the United Nations. This unit examines the role of humanitarian intervention and peacekeeping in international security.
