Reviews

'Protection of Civilians in UN Peacekeeping Operations: Legal Responsibility and Accountability sheds light on a critically important dimension of contemporary UN peacekeeping operations, offering valuable insights into the accountability gap and proposing bold but sensible remedies for addressing that gap.' Professor Richard Caplan, University of Oxford, UK 'This book powerfully demonstrates that the UN has both negative and positive obligations under international law to protect civilians, especially when it has deployed peacekeepers to protect them. It also shows that the UN has a long way to go to internalise those obligations and provide proper accountability for their breach.' Professor Nigel D. White, University of Nottingham, UK
