As long as there have been wars, there have been peace processes to
settle them. In the 12th century BC, the Egyptians and Hittites
concluded one of the earliest peace treaties still in existence.
Peacekeeping as understood as a modern concept emerged out of the
League of Nations after World War I. The League fielded many
international military operations that were essentially deployments
by the victorious Allied powers to oversee local plebiscites.
Peacekeeping operations have evolved to become essential elements
in most international attempts to guide belligerents through a
peace process. Peacekeeping operations can be great examples of the
international community cooperating to help settle a crisis.
Historical Dictionary of Multinational Peacekeeping: Third Edition
is a single source research guide for current and completed
peacekeeping operations. With an extensive chronology; an
introductory essay; an appendix with the mandates for three UN
peacekeeping operations; a research oriented bibliography based on
numerous categories of peacekeeping operations and issues related
to peacekeeping; 32 photographs of UN, EU, and NATO peacekeeping
operations; and over 500 cross referenced dictionary entries on
peacekeeping operations, people, organizations, countries, and
events associated with peacekeeping and brief descriptions of all
currently fielded operations as well as those that have completed
their missions dating back to the League of Nations in 1920.
