Privatising peace

Privatising peace2010

Malcolm Hugh Patterson

About this book

"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 inflict gross human rights abuses on others"--Provided by publisher.
