在一个日益复杂的世界中,比以往任何时候都更加重要的是要全面了解国际维持和平如何能够成为一股向善的力量,但也可能对东道国产生潜在的负面影响。在海地驻扎了十三年之后,极具争议的联合国海地稳定特派团现已撤出。联合国在海地的遗产并不全是负面的,但它确实包括性丑闻,分裂性地使用武力“清理”困难的社区,以及霍乱疫情,尼泊尔维和部队无意中造成8000多海地人死亡,60多万人感染。这本书对海地使命的遗产进行了独特的多学科分析。它创新性地介绍了当代国际维持和平法律和实践,主张建立一种新的问责模式,超越过时的豁免机制,突出人权。
In an increasingly complex world, it is more crucial than ever to have a full picture of how international peacekeeping can be a force for good, but can also have potentially negative impacts on host communities. After thirteen years of presence in Haiti, the highly controversial United Nations Stabilization Mission in Haiti has now withdrawn. The UN's legacy in Haiti is not all negative, but it does include sexual scandals, the divisive use of force to'clean up'difficult neighbourhoods as well as a cholera epidemic, brought inadvertently by Nepalese peacekeepers that killed more than 8,000 Haitians and infected more than 600,000. This book presents a unique multi-disciplinary analysis of the legacy of the mission for Haiti. It presents an innovative account of contemporary international peacekeeping law and practice, arguing for a new model of accountability, going beyond the outdated immunity mechanisms to foreground human rights.
