Whereas most preceding studies of the issue have focused exclusively on military peacekeepers, Sex in Peace Operations also covers the private military contractors and humanitarian NGO workers who play increasingly important roles in peace operations. Informed by socio-legal studies, Simm uses three case studies (Bosnia, West Africa and the Democratic Republic of the Congo) to illustrate the extent of the problem and demonstrate that the problems of impunity for sexual crimes are not just a failure of political will but the result of the structural weaknesses of international law in addressing non-state actors. Combining the insights of feminist critique with a regulatory approach to international law, her conclusions will interest scholars of international law, peace and conflict studies, gender and sexuality, and development. 606 $aSex$xSocial aspects 606 $aPeacekeeping forces$xMoral and ethical aspects 606 $aInternational agencies$vRules and practice 606 $aLiability (Law) 606 $aSex and law 606 $aPrivate military companies (International law) 606 $aNon-governmental organizations 606 $aHumanitarian assistance 615 0$aSex$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aPeacekeeping forces$xMoral and ethical aspects. 615 0$aInternational agencies 615 0$aLiability (Law) 615 0$aSex and law. 615 0$aPrivate military companies (International law) 615 0$aNon-governmental organizations. 615 0$aHumanitarian assistance. 676 $a345/.0253 700 $aSimm$b Gabrielle$01639735 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910816014903321 996 $aSex in peace operations$93982884 997 $aUNINA
