A compelling feature of the book is its exploration of often-neglected stakeholder perspectives alongside first-hand knowledge of the UN system and astute academic observations of key peacekeeping concepts, mandates and practices. Each chapter’s concluding recommendations invite scholars and policy makers to critically interrogate their own beliefs, assumptions and preferred solutions for keeping the peace and preventing mass atrocity violence.”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDr. Maria Stern\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProfessor in Peace and Development Studies, School of Global Studies\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUniversity of Gothenburg\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2016-08-23\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9783319358673\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-3-319-16372-7\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 190\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer International Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47674129318028,"sku":"9783319358673","price":49.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9783319358673.jpg?v=1776533590","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9783319358673","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
