Funded Activity Summary

The Regionalisation of Peace Operations: Legitimacy, Effectiveness and Stable Peace. Through its deployments in East Timor, the Solomon Islands, PNG and elsewhere, Australia has led the world in thinking about innovative ways of conducting peace operations. It is well-understood that peace operations in failed states can help to prevent terrorism by removing the conditions in which they prosper. To date, however, there has been no rigorous conceptually informed historical and contemporary research on precisely which types of actors are most effective. This project will add significantly to global understandings of peace operations and make an important contribution to Australian policy decisions about how best to maximise effectiveness.
