International Affairs / Conflict Resolution and Peace Studies / Security Studies "This book is essential reading for students, scholars, and practitioners who are trying to solve the puzzle of making peacekeeping more effective."--Kyle Beardsley, professor of political science, Duke University, and coauthor of Equal Opportunity Peacekeeping "In capturing the complexities of the peacekeeper contribution process, Uzonyi offers a more complete picture of the challenges inherent in meeting UN peacekeeping mandates, which are crucial for the United Nations to achieve its humanitarian goals."--Molly M. Melin, associate professor, Department of Political Science, Loyola University Chicago The United Nations faces three dilemmas when organizing a peacekeeping mission: convincing member states to contribute troops, persuading states to deploy troops quickly, and securing a troop commitment long enough to achieve success. The key to overcoming these challenges, Gary Uzonyi argues, is emphasizing the connection between peacekeeping and slowing the flow of refugees across borders. Finding Soldiers of Peace makes the case for this approach, which balances states' self-interests with the United Nations' goal of civilian protection. Through an analysis of all post-Cold War UN peacekeeping missions, particularly interventions in Mali and Sudan, Uzonyi shows how member states often tie civilian protection rhetoric to efforts to keep conflict-driven refugees from crossing into their territory. A data-rich exploration of the UN response to humanitarian crises, Finding Soldiers of Peace shows how policymakers and practitioners can better strategize the execution of UN peacekeeping missions among diverse, and even contentious, stakeholders. Gary Uzonyi is an assistant professor in the Department of Political Science at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. His articles have appeared in International Studies Quarterly, Journal of Peace Research, and Studies in Conflict & Terrorism, among other publications.
