The UNU Press title Kosovo and the Challenge of Humanitarian Intervention: Selective Indignation, Collective Action, and International Citizenship, edited by Albrecht Schnabel and Ramesh Thakur, has been awarded one of the prestigious Notable Government Documents Awards for 2000 by The Library Journal, a publication of the American Library Association.

This book is a collection of essays offering interpretations of the Kosovo crisis from numerous perspectives: the conflict-parties, NATO allies, and the immediate region surrounding the conflict. Country perspectives are followed by scholarly analyses of the longer-term normative, operational and structural consequences of the Kosovo crisis for world politics.
