Building Peace - The share of international institutions

Building Peace - The share of international institutions

Do international institutions contribute to the construction of peace? We could doubt it, so much critics abound: dysfunctions, failures, submission in the interests of the most powerful States.
Diplomats, academics and practitioners of these institutions, the authors are more qualified. In a perspective which they consider realistic and constructive, they underline the strengths and the weaknesses of what the international actors created and they do not want to give up. In the term of their investigations, it seems that if it remains possible to wage war against the opinion of international institutions, it becomes henceforth difficult to do without them to settle down peace.

The selected issues - collective security, disarmament, mediation, consolidation of peace, the human security, the reduction of poverty and disparities, international criminal justice, multilateralism - fact of this work a reference on international institutions.
