The politics and dilemmas of humanitarian assistance
Abstract
dc:description"The end of the Cold War has rejuvenated the debate of humanitarian intervention. The opportunity to employ armed force in a humanitarian role is said to have expanded with the end of the bipolar stalemate. Such forums as the United Nations Security Council are no longer held in check by concerns for ""spheres of influences."" With an expanded opportunity to intervene and the suggestions that military forces can work within the traditional network of humanitarian relief organizations, what does the empirical record offer these proponents of humanitarian intervention?"
