Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fiftieth anniversary of the foundation of the United Nations was commemorated in 1995 with a number of conferences and publications which assessed the history and contemporary role of this paramount international organisation. This book is the result of a meeting of scholars and specialists who wished to further understanding of the challenges faced by the United Nations in its efforts to intervene in post-cold war conflict. In particular the experiences in Bosnia, Somalia and in Rwanda, where UN peacekeepers seemed powerless to act in the face of acts of genocide, gross violations of human rights and the widespread suffering caused by war, makes such an analysis timely and important.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born in 1945, the United Nations came to life in the Arab world. It was there that the UN dealt with early diplomatic challenges that helped shape its institutions such as peacekeeping and political mediation. It was also there that the UN found itself trapped in, and sometimes part of, confounding geopolitical tensions in key international conflicts in the Cold War and post–Cold War periods, such as hostilities between Palestine and Iraq and between Libya and Syria. Much has changed over the past seven decades, but what has not changed is the central role played by the UN. This book’s claim is that the UN is a constant site of struggle in the Arab world and equally that the Arab world serves as a location for the UN to define itself against the shifting politics of its age. Looking at the UN from the standpoint of the Arab world, this volume collects some of the finest scholars and practitioners writing about the potential and the problems of a UN that is framed by both the promises of its Charter and the contradictions of its member states. This is a landmark book—a close and informed study of the UN in the region that taught the organization how to do its many jobs.

Download or read book Peacekeeping in the Middle East as an International Regime written by Kenneth Dombroski and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2007-11-21 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book investigates whether an international institution can alter state behaviour and thereby contribute to the peaceful resolution of a conflict. Kenneth Dombroski focuses on the series of interrelated peacekeeping efforts undertaken to help resolve the Arab-Israeli conflict from 1948-1994. Analyzing these sequential operations over a forty-six year period provides evidence as to the relative importance of institutions in a state-centric international system. He provides an alternative approach to the study of international peacekeeping that evaluates the long-term effects of peacekeeping on state behaviour, and concomitantly, the effects of varying state behaviour on an international regime. This book offers new perspectives on the relative importance of regimes, the utility of regime analysis in explaining the importance of international institutions, the significance of a peacekeeping regime's role in influencing state behaviour, and the impact of varying state behaviour on regime evolution.

Download or read book Yanks in Blue Berets written by L. Scott Lingamfelter and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2023-07-04 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1948 the United Nations launched the United Nations Truce Supervision Organization following the conflict that erupted between Israel and its Arab neighbors, who profoundly opposed the creation of a Jewish state. UNTSO quickly found itself overseeing the ceasefire lines between combatant parties. In the ensuing decades, as countries along the eastern Mediterranean engaged in a series of escalating military conflicts, UNTSO was continually challenged in its peacekeeping mission, often having to alter its configuration. Matters came to a head in 1982, when Israel invaded Lebanon for a second time, calling into question the efficacy of UN peacekeeping operations and US support for them. In Yanks in Blue Berets: American UN Peacekeepers in the Middle East, retired US Army colonel and former UN military observer L. Scott Lingamfelter chronicles the role of the US military in UN Middle East peacekeeping operations. Framed by his personal experiences, the book examines the difficulties faced by UN forces wedged between warring sides with limited trust in their authority as well as the challenging dichotomy of a soldier trained for combat yet immersed in unarmed peacekeeping. Yanks in Blue Berets is a "boots on the ground" perspective of the building Arab-Israeli tensions and geopolitics preceding the 1982 invasion of Lebanon.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis examines the case studies of the ten UN peacekeeping initiatives that have operated in the Middle East so as to consider how successful the United Nations has been in the region at its stated goal of maintaining peace and security. A comparative case study method is employed because an in-depth examination over a long period of time can help us understand how the specific context of an operation can influence its potential for success. Proposal put forth by prominent scholars were analyzed to help define the criteria used to determine an operation's level of success. Specifically, the operation's ability to complete its stated mandate, to promote a resolution to the conflict, to limit the number of casualties, and to contain the conflict within the confines of its initial belligerents were all given due consideration. Analyzing the Middle Eastern conflicts in regard to their capacity to satisfy the predetermined parameters of success revealed that two operations were successful, four of them were moderately successful, and that four of them were failures. This analysis also revealed factors that seem to contribute towards an operation's level of success such as the existence of a reliable pre-deployment ceasefire agreement or the cooperation of a unified Security Council. In spite of these areas for improvement, the fact that 60% of Middle Eastern conflicts in which the UN got involved lead to an improvement of the overall situation suggests that the continued presence of the peacekeepers is nonetheless justified.

Book excerpt: First published in 1998, Peacekeeping in Africa was written to help make up the shortfall in the number of books that concentrated specifically on peacekeeping in Africa. The book covers the main peacekeeping operations of Africa, and provides a wealth of background material. In doing so, it explores the policies and actions of the international organisations concerned and the participating African states. It also considers the impact of sub-regional powers and the role of the USA, Britain, and France. Comprising three parts, Peacekeeping in Africa examines world perspectives, case studies, and wider issues surrounding Africa’s peacekeeping operations.
