Description: "The effect of imperfect democratic controls at the national level and the challenges to provide transparent and accountable multilateral responses result in the so-called 'double democratic deficit' of the international use of force. Each chapter in this work analyses the challenges of parliamentary and democratic supervision of international security structures and puts forward proposals on how to improve democratic accountability of multinational responses to complex security challenges."--Jacket.
