Perilous Interventions

The Security Council and the Politics of Chaos

Hardeep Singh Puri

"Perilous Interventions" is a revealing account of the United Nations Security Council's hasty and careless decisions on the use of force in some of the world's most volatile regions. From Libya to Syria, Yemen to Crimea, and even India's past interventions in Sri Lanka, this book exposes the disastrous consequences of ill-thought-out interventions. Written by Hardeep Singh Puri, India's former envoy to the UN, this book sheds light on the whimsical decision-making of some of the Council's permanent members.

An outstanding book on the side effects of interventionism, written in extremely elegant prose and with maximal clarity. It documents how people find arguments couched in moralistic terms to intervene in complex systems they don't understand. This book should be mandatory reading to every student and practitioner of foreign affairs.      fuente
