The United Nations, peace and security : from collective security to the responsibility to protect / Ramesh Thakur.

This examination of how the UN operations have changed focus from interstate wars to preventing humanitarian atrocities, asks why, when and how forces may be used and argues that the gulf between legality and legitimacy is evidence of an eroded sense of international community.
