This book introduces the four principal sets of institutions that
engage in bringing peace and relief to societies mired in violent
conflicts and humanitarian crises-the United Nations and other
international bodies; non-governmental organizations; civilian
government agencies; and militaries. Because these institutions
have distinct goals as well as overlapping mandates and activities
on the ground, they do not always collaborate effectively, due in
part to a lack of familiarity with how the other institutions are
organized, make decisions or act on the ground. Despite declining
public support for large-scale, state-building missions recently,
more complex interagency efforts have evolved in partnership with
host country governments. Numerous third parties continue to
undertake peacebuilding, stabilization, and humanitarian relief
measures around the globe. This book is intended primarily for
those serving in the field, but it is also helpful to headquarters
personnel and policymakers, as well as military and agency trainees
and university students.
