Episode One

Two conflicts, one United Nations, two different responses. Claire Bolderson examines the UN's reaction to the crises in the Ivory Coast and Libya.

In the space of just over ten days in March 2011, the United Nations Security Council passed two of its most significant, emphatic and far-reaching resolutions in decades.

Claire Bolderson looks at how the world body used a new-found strength to intervene militarily in Libya and Ivory Coast and assesses how the decisions have changed the course of these two brutal conflicts.
