Download Sexual Exploitation and Abuse by UN Peacekeepers Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
Sexual exploitation and abuse by United Nations (UN) peacekeepers is not an isolated or recent problem, but it has been present in almost every peacekeeping operation. A culture of sexual exploitation and abuse is contrary to the UN’s zero-tolerance policy and has been the target of institutional reforms since 2005. Despite this, allegations of sexual abuse continue to emerge, and the reforms have not solved the problem. This book is a response to the continued lack of accountability of UN peacekeepers for sexual exploitation and abuse. Focusing on military contingent members, this book aims to analyse ways in which the UN can fill the accountability gap while taking a feminist perspective and emphasising the needs of victims, their communities, and the host state. This book directly challenges the status quo of relying on troop-contributing countries (TCCs) to hold their peacekeepers to account. It proposes first, the establishment of a series of hybrid courts, and second, a mechanism for dealing with victim rehabilitation and reparation. It addresses these topics by considering international and human rights law and will be of interest to researchers, academics, policymakers, and students with an interest in international criminal law, United Nations peacekeeping, and peace studies.

In Sexual Exploitation and Abuse by UN Military Contingents: Moving Beyond the Current Status Quo and Responsibility under International law Róisín Burke explores the legal, conceptual and practical difficulties of dealing with sexual offences committed by military contingent personnel deployed on UN peace operations. Some of the inadequacies of current legal frameworks for dealing with such abuses are examined. The book addresses the difficulties with applying international humanitarian law, human rights law and/or international criminal law in this context, and the broader issue of state/international organization responsibility. The book proposes policy options to increase accountability both for perpetrators and for troop contributing nations otherwise indifferent to the crimes of their national contingents.

Download Unintended Consequences of Peacekeeping Operations Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The deployment of a large number of soldiers, police officers and civilian personnel inevitably has various effects on the host society and economy, not all of which are in keeping with the peacekeeping mandate and intent or are easily discernible prior to the intervention. This book is one of the first attempts to improve our understanding of unintended consequences of peacekeeping operations, by bringing together field experiences and academic analysis. The aim of the book is not to discredit peace operations but rather to improve the way in which such operations are planned and managed.

Download Sexual Exploitation and Abuse in Peacekeeping and Aid Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
In 2003, the UN adopted a zero-tolerance policy on sexual exploitation and abuse by peacekeepers and aid workers. The policy arrived amid a series of scandals revealing sexual misconduct perpetrated against the very people peacekeeping and humanitarian missions were meant to protect. This edited collection, including contributions from academics and practitioners, highlights the challenges of preventing and responding to abuse in peacekeeping and aid work, and the unintended consequences of current approaches. It lays bare the structures of power, coloniality and racism that underpin abuse and hinder accountability while charting a path for future action. This eye-opening book will appeal to academics and students of the politics and practice of peacekeeping and humanitarianism, and to practitioners, policy makers and those working within the field.

Download Sexual Exploitation and Abuse in UN Peackeeping Operations Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
On October 31, 2000, the United Nations (UN) Security Council passed Resolution 1325. The resolution was passed in response to allegations of sexual abuse against UN peacekeepers across several missions and in an effort to advance the cause of gender equality, which the UN has championed for many decades. Among its many provisions, the resolution called for gender mainstreaming and the increased participation of women throughout the peacekeeping process. The majority of UN policymakers pushed for more female troops to be deployed in peacekeeping operations to battle the abuses committed on the ground by male peacekeepers, which they felt required an immediate and aggressive response. This dissertation examines whether this emphasis on the presence of female troops to combat problems of sexual exploitation and abuse committed by male troops has been successful or not. Do more female troops curtail the frequency of sexual exploitation or abuse or has the policy been misguided? Most studies of this problem have been case studies focusing on particular cases at particular times. The few empirical studies that have been undertaken have only been able to study a limited period of time with incomplete data. This important question can be empirically examined over time with new data released by the UN which includes the number of allegations of sexual exploitation and abuse committed by peacekeepers since 1990. Ultimately, I find that the number of female troops is an important determinant of sexual exploitation and abuse, but that several other factors relating to necessary and sufficient conditions for sexual assault are important as well. I conclude policies encouraging more female troop participation by the UN may be a first line of defense, but other measures can be taken that will provide the UN with a multi-faceted approach to the problem that will be more effective in the long run.
