Journal of International Peacekeeping

Aims & Scope

The Journal of International Peacekeeping is devoted to reporting upon and analyzing international peacekeeping with an emphasis upon legal and policy issues, but it is not limited to these issues.

Topics include inter alia peacekeeping, peace, war, conflict resolution, diplomacy, international law, international security, humanitarian relief, humanitarian law, and terrorism.

The journal is of scholarly quality but is not narrowly theoretical.

It provides the interested public -- diplomats, civil servants, politicians, the military, academics, journalists, and NGO employees -- with an up-to-date source of information on peacekeeping, enabling them to keep abreast of the most important developments in the field.

Peacekeeping is treated in a pragmatic light, seen as a form of international military cooperation for the preservation or restoration of international peace and security.

Attention is focused not only on UN peacekeeping operations, but other missions as well.
