Abstract

The author explores a case study on the Kosovo operation, focusing on how US decisions were made in the case of Kosovo. The chapter firstly introduces the historical background of the war, then outlines how the US policy changed from non-involvement to military intervention. Kosovo was basically a NATO operation, thus the chapter moves to evaluate whether it was a successful NATO operation and analyse the legacy of the Kosovo mission including the implications of the Kosovo war to NATO.
