The United Nations Emergency Peace Service (UNEPS) is a civil society-led idea to establish a permanent UN peacekeeping service to improve UN peace operations as well as to operationalise the emerging norm of the 'responsibility to protect' civilians from atrocity crimes. The UNEPS proposal has received limited support. The author argues that interest in, and support for, the UNEPS proposal is determined by government perceptions that such a service would erode state sovereignty, the extent to which the principles of the proposal are consistent with actors' views on the world and perceptions on whether UNEPS will realistically be capable of contributing to the workings of the UN and regional peacekeeping systems in areas that are seen to be deficient. The book makes a case for localising the UNEPS proposal and the author suggests that UNEPS' architects might consider developing a less ambitious proposal as a first step to creating a rapidly deployable service with the mandate to prevent atrocity crimes. It examines various alternatives towards this end and concludes that, because the UNEPS proposal is intricately linked to the UN, trust in the world organisation is an essential ingredient in generating support for the idea. It argues that a central way of achieving this is to ensure that the values and priorities of a wide range of stakeholders are seen to be represented in the organisation's structure and workings"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 610 20 $a United Nations. $b Emergency Peace Service. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n2014023603 610 20 $a United Nations $x Peacekeeping forces. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99002397 650 0 $a Responsibility to protect (International law) $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2011004274 650 0 $a Atrocities $x Prevention. 650 7 $a POLITICAL SCIENCE / International Relations / General. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a POLITICAL SCIENCE / Political Freedom & Security / International Security. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a POLITICAL SCIENCE / Peace. $2 bisacsh 830 0 $a Global politics and the responsibility to protect. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2011030705 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191211030215.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=925FC212FB5411E7891C5F6197128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
