Police Peacekeeping
This book questions the optimistic reading of police peacekeeping often found in both academic and policy circles. Lou Pingeot provides an in-depth study of UN intervention in Haiti to show how a single site can help to shed light on how policing functions globally.
Revitalizing the United Nations
This book explores whether the United Nations (UN) is relevant in resolving wars when the permanent members of the UN Security Council are directly or indirectly involved. It examines solutions to major wars by applying and testing the UN’s vast experience in mediating and deploying peacekeeping, demilitarization, truce monitoring, UN temporary administration, and other tools. While some observers see the organization in deep decline as the Security Council cannot agree to stop the wars in Ukraine and Gaza, the expert contributors to this volume make the case that until the start of this century the UN played a critically important role in resolving and freezing major conflicts, and the renewal of the organization could be based on these and other successful precedents. This volume will be of interest to scholars and students of global governance, security studies, and the history of the UN in the maintenance of international peace and security. It will also be of great interest to practitioners at the UN and its partner organizations, as well as to diplomats around the world.
The Use of Force in UN Peacekeeping
This edited volume provides a detailed and nuanced analysis of UN peacekeeping and the use of force, to inform a better understanding of the complex and interconnected issues at stake for the UN community. Peacekeeping is traditionally viewed as a largely passive military activity, governed by the principles of impartiality, consent, and the minimum use of force. Today, most large UN Peacekeeping Operations are only authorized to use force in defence of their mandates and to protect civilians under imminent threat of physical violence. Recently, with the deployment of the Force Intervention Brigade in the DRC, the UN has gone beyond peacekeeping and into the realm of peace-enforcement. These...
UN Peace Operations and International Policing
This book addresses the important question of how the United Nations (UN) should monitor and evaluate the impact of police in its peace operations. UN peace operations are a vital component of international conflict management. Since the end of the Cold War one of the foremost developments has been the rise of UN policing (UNPOL). Instances of UNPOL action have increased dramatically in number and have evolved from passive observation to participation in frontline law enforcement activities. Attempts to ascertain the impact of UNPOL activities have proven inadequate. This book seeks to redress this lacuna by investigating the ways in which the effects of peace operations – and UNPOL in par...

Forging New Conventional Wisdom Beyond International Policing
Forging New Conventional Wisdom Beyond International Policing: Learning from Complex Political Realities provides an innovative perspective in the field by conceptualizing international policing as part of a much broader system of peace and capacity development initiatives. After establishing the global context and historical evolution of police in peace operations, authors Bryn Hughes, Charles T. Hunt, and Jodie Curth-Bibb proceed to recast key ontological and epistemological aspects. Examinations of the Rule of Law and Monitoring and Evaluation in peace and capacity building establish a solid foundation upon which the authors offer a convincing argument for a new, post-Weberian approach. In Forging New Conventional Wisdom Beyond International Policing: Learning from Complex, Political Realities, researchers, practitioners and policy-makers will find a critical addition to the current discourse on international policing.
