Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book makes an extraordinary contribution to broadening and deepening the understanding of the complex range of relationships in modern peacekeeping operations. Topics include interactions between national contingents and their respective chains of command and their relations with other contingents in the field, as well as with regional authorities, scores of NGOs, and the media. The contributors' findings help to identify "points of tension" in peacekeeping operations in Bosnia-Herzegovina, where, for the first time, contingents from more than 35 countries had to cooperate, each of which had their own, quite different constitutional, legal, cultural, social, and economic preconditions.
