Decision-Making in the UN Security Council - The Case of Haiti, 1990-1997 (Hardcover)

This unique and intriguing study examines the UN's efforts to reinstate Haitian President Aristide, overthrown in a 1991 coup. An active participant in some of the dramatic events in Haiti, David Malone sheds new light on the roles and motivations of key actors, particularly the US; the Security Council authorized use of force; issues of power and influence at the UN; the links between the Haiti crisis and other contemporary international conflicts; and UN co-operation with the Organization of American States.
