Future for Peacekeeping? [PDF ebook] 

This study challenges the easy assumption that peacekeeping as we’ve known it in the past will be the ‘pill for every ill’ in the future. A ‘new world order’ means new types of conflict breaking out almost anywhere in a world that is more volatile and less predictable than before. Contributors to this volume argue that we need to get back to basics; that there are sobering lessons to be learnt from Somalia, the Lebanon and Cambodia; that we need to ask some fundamental questions. Can peacekeeping be ‘reformed’ or must it be totally ‘reinvented’? Are soldiers the best peacekeepers and, if not, who should replace them?
