"UN Peace Operations and Asian Security" provides an unparalleled
analysis of the state of the United Nations peace operations and
its impact on Asian security. It examines new strategies being
adopted by the UN; including doctrinal shifts in peace operation,
and assesses the division of labor between the UN, regional
organization and non-governmental organizations/actors.
Based on selected papers from mostly Asian scholars, the book
offers regional perspectives from South, Southeast and Northeast
Asia on the changing nature of UN Peace operations and analyses
some of the core issues that are of critical relevance to regional
security in Asia. In addition it reveals interesting new insights
on the new players in the area of peace operations-- i.e. China and
Japan and considers their projected roles as defined by their
respective security concepts. It also delves into issues of
possible areas of concern caused by the new activism of these
regional powers in peace operations. Finally, the book also
revisits the significant lessons learnt from the UN experience in
Cambodia and East Timor and examines their impact on future
directions of peace operations.
