Cost Benefit Analysis of Third-Party Intervention in Intrastate Conflict

Cost-benefit analysis of third-party interventions in inter-state conflicts In order to strengthen recent domestic conflicts, the role of third-party intervention has become increasingly important for peace and security in international systems. Nonetheless, the expansion of violence in the form of military intervention can have serious consequences for intervention goals and country choices. Past literature focuses on the effectiveness of such interventions and does not adequately assess the reasons why a third party chose to use military resources for such purposes.

Cost-benefit analysis is often used by the government to evaluate the desirability of certain interventions; it is an analysis of the cost-benefit of different options to determine if the benefit exceeds the cost. The goal is to measure the efficiency of the intervention on the current situation. The cost and benefit of the intervention will be assessed based on the willingness to pay (welfare) or intention to pay (cost). Input is often measured by the opportunity cost to measure the value of the best alternative use. The guiding principle is to list all the parties affected by the intervention and to influence the welfare to the monetary value when they are evaluated.

The international community, in particular developed countries, is paying for the humanitarian crisis due to the civil war. Many of the costs associated with interventions do not include the social and ethical costs of nearly 400,000 people who have lost. Even regional organizations such as the European Union, the African Union and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization have participated in Sudan and they have not immediately resolved the Darfur conflict (Welling, 2007, 159). Some governments, including Americans, seem to be eager to not do anything that would require serious diplomatic or political capital even in the event of the Darfur issue. . The European Union provided millions of euros to Darfur and the African Union provided military
