Debating Peacekeeping Cooperation at Multiple Levels
New Humanitarianism and Changing Logics of the Political in International Relations
This article seeks to place new/neo humanitarianism in a wider context of post-Cold War international relations and argues that its emergence corresponds to an important shift in the meaning of the political in contemporary international relations. It describes the shift in terms of the contrast between two logics of politics: the conventional logic of distinction, whereby political processes take place between territorially separated sovereign e…
The Group of 8 and Global Peacekeeping, 2004–2010
PEACEKEEPING HAS BEEN A RELATIVELY NEW AGENDA ITEM FOR THE GROUP OF 8 (G8). (1) The group's attention to peacekeeping can be traced back to three movements from the late 1990s that were in and around the G8. The G8's active role in conflict prevention and management, especially in the Kosovo crisis, highlighted the potential role that it could play in this field. In the same period, several G8 countries also started global initiatives to organize…
Peacekeeping cooperation between the United Nations and regional organisations
This article considers a conceptual framework for peacekeeping cooperation between the United Nations and regional organisations. It articulates the ‘subcontracting’ and ‘partnering’ modes of global-regional peacekeeping cooperation, and examines how they have been practiced through efforts to form institutional partnerships with the African Union (AU) and the European Union (EU). The article argues that there is incremental progress in instituti…
Impartial’ Use of Force in United Nations Peacekeeping
This article explains how the idea of ‘impartial’ use of force by peacekeepers, first proposed in the Brahimi Report of 2000, has been translated into practice. It first links the report's definition of impartiality to mandates of post-Brahimi operations to identify what impartiality has come to mean in peacekeeping mandates. It argues specifically that impartiality has encompassed two different components of robust mandate implementation and hum…
Reading “Threats to International Peace and Security,” 1946–2005
In the United Nations Charter the notion of the “threat to international peace and security” is designed to play a key enabling role in framing its collective security functions. Taking a 60-year period from the UN's founding, this article examines how the UN Security Council has developed the notion of the “threat to international peace and security” through its resolutions, and what this evolution might mean for the notion of collective securit…
Fighting Terrorism and Fighting Humanitarian Emergencies
This article aims to articulate how humanitarian action and counter-terrorism could be influencing the current shape of international relations through an examination of recent discourses on terrorism and internal displacement. These discourses have produced two corresponding approaches to state sovereignty that share the need to view sovereignty as measured in terms of the degree to which a state discharges its ‘sovereign responsibilities’ and y…
