The protection paradoxhow the UN can get better at saving civilian lives /[electronic resource] :by Conor Foley. - Cham :Springer Nature Switzerland :2023. - xvii, 168 p. :ill., digital ;24 cm. - Human rights interventions. - Human rights interventions..

Chapter 1: Introduction -- Chapter 2: Understanding Protection -- Chapter 3: Understanding Peacekeeping -- Chapter 4: Understanding the Applicable Legal Framework -- Chapter 5: Human rights and humanitarianism -- Chapter 6: Protection of civilians through working with armed non-state actors -- Chapter 7: Conclusions.

The book provides an up to date and authoritative account of how the UN is re[1]thinking its obligations to protect civilians during conflicts. Based on hundreds of interviews with senior UN officials and humanitarian protection staff in headquarters and in the field and a review of the UN's 'grey literature'. It also draws on the author's own experience of working on human rights and protection in some of the world's most violent conflicts. It is written not about what the UN ought to do - or how it could have behaved differently in an abstract or theoretically ideal world - but what the UN is actually doing to fulfil the fundamental purposes set forth in its Charter. Conor Foley teaches at the Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio de Janeiro and works as a consultant on legal reform, human rights, and humanitarian protection in conflict zones. His previous books include UN Peacekeeping Operations and the Protection of Civilians, saving succeeding generations (2017) The Thin Blue Line, how humanitarianism went to war (2008) and In Spite of You: Bolsonaro and the new Brazilian resistance (2019)
