The seminar was organized by the Permanent Delegation of Sweden to the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) in co-operation with Folke Bernadotte Academy, and with the support of the Slovenian OSCE Chairman-in-Office. The objective of the seminar was to promote the implementation in the OSCE of UN Security Council Resolution 1325 (2000) on women, peace and security. There is a clear role for the OSCE in implementing the Resolution, as manifested in the 2004 OSCE Action Plan for the Promotion of Gender Equality. In this context, the aim of the seminar was to discuss and identify possible actions in order to fully implement UNSCR 1325 in the OSCE. A further purpose of the seminar was to exchange information about women’s participation in conflict prevention and crisis management and to exchange experience and lessons learned from participation in conflict prevention and international missions. I am pleased to note that some 200 participants from OSCE participating States, partners for co-operation, international organizations and non-governmental organizations took part in the event. The seminar brought together keynote speakers with a range of experience of working with UNSCR 1325 as well as with women as actors in conflict prevention and crisis management. It is especially satisfying that the workshops led to such lively discussions and fruitful exchanges of views. I am confident that the seminar succeeded in its ambition of making a contribution to the implementation of UNSCR 1325 in the OSCE. Many recommendations were presented by participants, and I believe that these will prove very useful in the continued process. This important work must now continue in the OSCE. I would like to express my gratitude to those who accepted my invitation and who helped to make the expert seminar a success – above all the keynote speakers and respondents for their personal and candid contributions. Particular thanks go to the moderator Alyson J.K. Bailes, Director of the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute, and to the workshop moderators and rapporteurs. Laila Freivalds 3 Summary of plenary and workshop discussions Introduction: The Expert Seminar “Women in Conflict Prevention and Crisis Management”, which was held in Vienna, Austria, on 20 June 2005, was organised by the Permanent Delegation of Sweden to the OSCE in co-operation with Folke Bernadotte Academy, and with the support of the Slovenian OSCE Chairman-in-Office following an initiative of the Swedish Ministry for Foreign Affairs. The main objective was to promote the implementation of UN Security Council Resolution 1325 (2000) in the OSCE and thereby contribute to the equal and active participation of both women and men in common efforts to prevent conflicts and promote peace and security in the region. The seminar gathered representatives from OSCE participating States, OSCE partners for co-operation, OSCE field missions, international organisations, NGOs and military staffs. Some 200 experts participated in the event to exchange experience and lessons learned from participation in conflict prevention and international missions. The seminar was organized in plenary sessions and workshops, which offered an opportunity to discuss and identify possible actions to implement UNSCR 1325 in the OSCE. The outcome of the seminar will help to identify and support concrete measures for action. Statements made by participants during the seminar are annexed to this report. The OSCE Action Plan for the Promotion of Gender Equality was adopted in 2004. The Action Plan aims to set out the priorities of the OSCE in promoting gender equality through its operations, in its organization and in all participating States, and to ensure the monitoring of its implementation. In order to achieve these goals, the plan addresses the activities, policies, projects and programmes of the organization concerning gender mainstreaming, as well as assistance by the OSCE to participating States in promoting gender equality. The plan contains specific references to the implementation of UNSCR 1325 in the OSCE. Summary: During the course of the seminar a number of important questions were discussed, experience and lessons learned were shared, and the flow of suggestions and recommendations was vivid. The main lines of the discussions are reflected in this summary. The important roles of women in conflict and crisis management as well as in peace-building and reconstruction are acknowledged in UN Security Council Resolution 1325. Women possess knowledge and experience, not least when it comes to organising and mobilising their own communities, and contributing to national welfare and development through dialogue and reconciliation. For efficiency reasons, better use must

    HISTORISK TIDSKRIFT (Sweden) 139:3 • 2019 Fredsbevarande eller fredsframtvingande? Svenskt deltagande i internationella truppinsatser 1921–2017 lars ericson wolke Försvarshögskolan i Stockholm I denna artikel undersöks de internationella truppinsatser som Sverige genomfört i fredsstödjande syfte. Analysen komplicerar den gängse bilden av att insatserna på västra Balkan innebar en övergång från fredsbevarande, med parternas samtycke, till fredsframtvingande, genom militärt våld mot någon part. Samtidigt började Sverige övergå från insatser i FN:s regi till sådana ledda av NATO. Men redan under 1960-talet förekom militär verksamhet som inte stämde med den svenska självbilden av en traditionell ”basker blå”-insats, utan som pekade fram mot freds- framtvingande åtgärder. Utgångspunkter och forskningsproblem I snart ett sekel har Sverige ställt militära förband till förfogande för internationella fredsbevarande insatser. Tyngdpunkten i engagemanget har legat på perioden efter 1956, men förhistorien under Nationernas Förbund (NF) är inte ointressant för en djupare förståelse av Sveriges deltagande i sådana insatser. Länge skedde insatserna i form av FN-man- dat, men successivt har såväl EU som NATO kommit att vara huvudmän för operationerna. Under perioden från 1934 fram till i dag har fler än 100 000 svenskar deltagit i olika former av fredsbevarande internatio- nella insatser. Drygt 80 personer har omkommit i tjänsten.1 Artikeln har granskats av två externa lektörer enligt modellen double blind peer review. 1.

First of all, I must mention my supervisor, Magnus Jerneck. Not only was he instrumental in convincing me to accept the position as Ph.D. Candidate at a point when I had already declined, he has also been a constant source of support. His creativity and ability to ask just the right questions to push one’s effort forward are second to none. Secondly, I must thank my assistant supervisor, Johannes Lindvall. His exceptional eye for structure, prose, detail and method has vastly improved this dissertation. At the department of Political Science, I have received invaluable comments and suggestions from many colleagues. In particular, I want to mention Håkan Magnusson, Anders Sannerstedt, Douglas Brommes- son, Karin Aggestam, Jakob Gustavsson and Mikael Sundström. The diligent work of the administrative and technical staff has also been invaluable over the years, both to support my work on this book and to facilitate my teaching.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 k nz\ 6928S3 Abstract This thesis examines the impact of security sector reform in peacebuilding operations on the process of democratisation, with reference to the case of Bosnia-Herzegovina (BiH) between the signing of the peace agreement in November 1995 and the parliamentary elections of November 2000. A hard realist model has been applied in BiH but has not significantly helped democratisation, leaving the nationalist power structure largely untouched because of two factors: the structure of the agreement itself, tom between its separatist and re-integrationist provisions, and the incoherence of the international community with regard to security sector reform in BiH. The Bosnian predicament demonstrates the potential of a hard realist/liberal model of peacebuilding.

    Kandidatexamen. "There is a new sheriff in town and he is Swedish" - En kvalitativ studie om de svenska utlandsmissionerna i Bosnienkonflikten och hur händelserna rapporterades till det civila Sverige. Författare: Arvid Svensson Examinator: Erik Wångmar Handledare: Hans Hägerdal Termin: HT14/VT15 Ämne: Historia Nivå: Kandidatexamen Kurskod: 2HiÄ06 Abstract: Title: "There is a new sheriff in town and he is Swedish" - a qualitative study of the Swedish foreign missions in the Bosnia conflict and how the events were reported to civil Sweden. In this paper, a discussion and analysis on the Swedish participation in the UN- mission in the Balkan conflict versus the reporting from the Swedish news press Dagens Nyheter (DN) of the same action is held. From a ground in survey questions to Swedish soldiers that took part in the conflict ,what they thought of the conflict and what got reported back to the Swedish civilians via the press and their differences is later held. A question in the survey also treats what the soldiers think got changed in the Swedish Armed Forces due to their actions in the conflict and what the soldiers thought of the view in the 1990s, national and international, on the Swedish Armed Forces. This survey and the articles from DN that is analyzed is the ground in this papers issues, discussion and results. The paper overall and later the analysis is based on a theory in Oral history taken of Malin Thor's previous researches in the field and also strengthened with other researchers in the same field of studies. The title to this paper is from the English press reporting about the Swedes taking charge of the UNPROFOR-mission in the Balkan conflict and is about the Colonel Ulf Henricsson, commander of the UN Nordic battalion (NordBat2) in central Bosnia and his firm hand and authority against the local warlords.
