Do international bureaucracies have a meaningful influence on world
politics? Using the UN Secretariat and the evolution of UN
peacekeeping as an example, this book shows that even international
bureaucracies with limited autonomy can shape international
politics. Peace operations are the UN's flagship activity. Over the
past decades, UN Blue Helmets have been sent all over the globe and
have been performing an expanding set of intrusive tasks, while
being supported by increasingly professional institutional
structures. Silke Weinlich covers these operational, conceptual and
institutional dimensions and focuses on three specific decisions
that have been crucial to the evolution of UN peacekeeping: the
establishment of the UN transitional administration in East Timor,
the development of a peacekeeping doctrine, and the establishment
of the Standing Police Capacity. With its integrative framework of
analysis, this book makes a valuable contribution to the debate on
the agency of international organisations.
