Unintended Consequences of Peacekeeping Operations The deployment of a large number of soldiers, police officers and civilian personnel inevitably has various effects on the host society and economy, not all of which are in keeping with the peacekeeping mandate and intent or are easily discernible prior to the intervention. This book attempts to improve our understanding of unintended consequences of peacekeeping operations, by bringing together field experiences and academic analysis.

Reconstituting korean Security: A Policy Primer The classic national security concerns of nuclear proliferation and the production, sale and use of weapons of mass destruction cannot be addressed in the Korean peninsula without at the same time considering the implications and interrelationship of the human security issues of food, poverty and, perhaps more controversially, freedom. The publication tackles Korean security dilemmas from the perspective of the various international actors.
