| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This project investigates the currents in revision of peace operations doctrine in the UK, US, and the UN, and the main drivers behind those processes. A doctrine is a set of principles to be applied with judgment according to situations faced. An appropriate doctrine is necessary in order to achieve success in operations.
The main findings of the project are that both UK and US doctrine revision processes reflected efforts to follow the trends and political focus of the UN. Of special importance in the UK doctrine were the definition of peace enforcement and peacekeeping, and in the case of the US specific themes such as protection of civilians. In order to investigate the doctrine revision process at the UN secretariat, this project created a book project in collaboration with experts at the Norwegian Institute of International Affairs. We argue that there is a need for the UN to prepare a separate doctrine covering stabilisation, following recent developments in the field.
