This book makes the case for a standing UN Emergency Peace Service.
With this one development - effectively a UN first responder for
complex emergencies - the organization would finally have a rapid,
reliable capacity to help fulfill its tougher assigned tasks. To
date, the UNEPS initiative has encountered an unreceptive
political, fiscal, and security environment. Yet overlapping crises
are now inevitable as are profound shifts. This book presents an
insightful review of the worrisome security challenges ahead and
analysis of two recent high-level UN reports. It addresses the
primary roles, core principles, and requirements of a UNEPS, as
well as the arguments for and against such a dedicated UN service.
Further, it reveals that the primary impediments and lessons
learned also help demonstrate what may work and, equally important,
what won't. With modest support, the book shows, the next steps are
feasible, although it's important to recall that ideas, even good
ideas, don't work unless we do.
