Conflict Security & Development Group at King's College, London

Canada, Germany, Norway, Sweden and the UK, is timely.
Following the end of military action
in Iraq, attention is now focused on the peacekeeping operation and
the issues faced in the stabilisation and re-construction of the

"A Review of Peace Operations: A
Case for Change" provides the most up-to-date assessment of
the realities of peacekeeping operations at a time when inside
knowledge is at a premium. Drawing on lessons learned in four key
peace operations, the report examines the UN's role in peacekeeping
as well as actions that should be taken by member
states.
