Beschreibung
Whenever and wherever they intervene, international peace-keeping and
stabilization missions are generally faced with complex challenges and
situations involving a high degree of uncertainty, for the mastering of
which there appears to be no generic solution. Such missions, as devoid of
alternatives as they may be in their respective situations, often draw
much criticism and little praise upon themselves, and can often
“successfully fail”. The “case of Kosova” is no exception here. The author
analyzes the military policies and policing carried out by the
international community in Kosova in great detail and with great
expertise, explaining which events and developments have shaped the
conflict-ridden juxtaposition of international and Kosovan institutions,
and providing perspectives on the future of the country.
