While the Security Council has been mandating peacekeepers to protect civilians since 1999, there is still contention on its legal meaning. Even though the concept of ‘protection’ can seem self-evident, as the concept of ‘protection’ is borrowed language, each body of law will perceive ‘protection’ through a different lens. However, as the mandate creates a legal obligation on UN peace missions, a clear understanding of protection is fundamental to ensure performance and accountability.

The Leuven Manual is the authoritative, comprehensive overview of the rules that are to be followed in peace operations conducted by the United Nations, the European Union, NATO, the African Union and other organisations, with detailed commentary on best practice in relation to those rules. Topics covered include human rights, humanitarian law, gender aspects, the use of force and detention by peacekeepers, the protection of civilians, and the relevance of the laws of the host State. The international group of expert authors includes leading academics, together with military officers and policy officials with practical experience in contemporary peace operations, supported in an individual capacity by input from experts working for the UN, the African Union, NATO, and the International Committee of the Red Cross. This volume is intended to be of assistance to states and international organisations involved in the planning and conduct of peace operations, and practitioners and academia.

This book is a pioneering study of the impact of a peacekeeping operation undertaken by an international organization or third party on the territory of Ukraine and the potential interface with the Ukrainian domestic legal system. The authors consider contemporary international legal peacekeeping mechanisms, experience with recent United Nations peacekeeping operations, international legal aspects of determining the character of aggression with particular reference to the Donbas, and the distinctive features of the legal status and activity of such a peacekeeping mission were it to be introduced in the Donbas region of Ukraine.

The author offers here a comprehensive account of the human rights obligations of United Nations peace operations with a dual focus on the applicability and the content of UN peace operations' human rights obligations. Selected case studies show a triad of human rights gaps : a protection gap, an accountability gap and a remedy gap. Going further than purely legal studies on the subject, the author makes use of international relations theory and addresses considerations of reputation and legitimacy as reasons for (non-)compliance with human rights by the UN. Based on this interdisciplinary approach, she convincingly proposes ways for enhancing human rights compliance in UN peace operations.

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.

"De la guerre russo-ukrainienne à la crise israélo-palestinienne ; des pandémies à l'émergence climatique ; des tensions nucléaires à la confrontation entre Chine et États-Unis : l'ONU est évidemment en difficulté sur la plupart des dossiers internationaux. Pourtant, elle reste dépositaire des espoirs plus nobles de l'humanité et son but demeure presque alchimique : apporter la paix à des relations internationales qui sont souvent turbulentes. À la fois inefficace et indispensable, l'ONU cumule donc les problèmes, mais offre aussi une multitude de solutions possibles. Il s'agit de les concrétiser. Quelles sont les origines historiques de cette organisation si particulière ? D'où viennent ses faiblesses structurelles et normatives ? Sont-elles surmontables sur la longue durée ? Et y a-t-il une alternative crédible à l'ONU ? Ce livre anatomise une organisation qui semble tant décevante qu'incontournable. Pour une nouvelle géopolitique de l'ONU."
