Framing Peace: Public Information and Security in UN Peace Operations

Dr. Till Blume

doi:10.5771/9783845232652

Summary

UN Friedensmissionen tragen in Konfliktregionen zu Sicherheit bei. Dabei müssen diese mit lokalen Akteuren interagieren. Im Mittelpunkt stehen dabei die Wahrnehmung von Sicherheit und die Kommunikation über Sicherheit. Wie Sicherheit und Öffentlichkeitsarbeit im Konfliktgebiet zusammenhängen, und wie effektive Öffentlichkeitsarbeit für UN Friedensmissionen überlebenswichtig sein kann, zeigt „Framing Peace“ anhand von drei Fallstudien zu den UN-Missionen in Bosnien-Herzegowina, dem Kosovo und Liberia. Schwerpunkt liegt dabei auf den Polizeikomponenten der drei UN-Friedensmissionen. Die Arbeit deckt den Zeitraum der Entwicklung von UN Friedensmissionen zwischen 1996 bis 2006 ab.
