• In Event: Research Studies on UN Leaders

Short Description

For leaders to operate successfully in a tumultuous world, they must appreciate the importance of cultural understanding. When it comes to intervention into sovereign states, cultural understanding and respect are essential. This work examines how cultural misunderstanding by U.S. and UN leaders failed to foster political reconciliation in Somalia from 1992-1994.
