  • Peacekeeping and Foreign Aid in Conflict-Affected States
    ABSTRACT The Intervention Nexus: Peacekeeping and Foreign Aid in Conflict-Affected States by Jonathan Kurt Simmons The continued deployment of uniformed peacekeeping operations (PKOs) and simultaneous commitment of foreign aid demonstrate the belief that these interventions are viable tools for generating stability in conflict-affected environments. However, there appears to be no concerted effort within the international community to design or employ of these interventions in a constructive manner. In this thesis, I argue that these independent interventions increase stability by targeting the two components of stability: the network of political, economic, and social interactions or behaviors that define a state, and a socially-defined oversight mechanism that attempts to restrain those behaviors within accepted norms. I also argue that variation in mission design affects the level of oversight a PKO generates and that higher levels of United Nations involvement will generate more oversight. Furthermore, increased levels of development- focused foreign aid applied under this higher level of oversight will create an interactive effect that results in higher stability. Rather than looking for success in those indicators that are specific to either intervention, I argue that investments made in the conflict-affected economy by foreign firms seeking profit and security of their assets (foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows) are a viable measure to determine changes in stability. By considering all states that have hosted a uniformed peacekeeping mission 1970-2013, I find that United Nations PKOs and higher levels of development-focused foreign aid have a positive interactive effect on FDI inflows. However, we only observe these results when we account for the time necessary for aid commitments to be utilized in the field and information derived through PKO oversight to affect policy decisions aimed at conflict resolution and reconciliation.

NATO’s Commitment to the Balkans Key Information Key Information Key Definitions • Implementation Force (IFOR) – NATO-led force deployed to Bosnia and Herze- govina at the end of 1995 in accordance with UN Security Council Resolution 1031, with a one-year mandate to help ensure compliance with the military provisions of the Dayton Peace Accords of 14 December 1995. • Stabilisation Force (SFOR) – successor to IFOR, deployed since December 1996. • Kosovo Force (KFOR) – deployed in accordance with UN Security Council Res- olution 1244 of 10 June 1999 calling for an effective international civil and security presence in Kosovo. Resolution 1244 establishes Kosovo as an entity under interim international administration, requests the UN Secretary-General to appoint a Special Representative to oversee the implementation of the international civil presence, and authorises member states and relevant international organisations to establish the international security presence. KFOR works alongside the UN Mission to Kosovo (UNMIK) and other international and non-governmental agen- cies to lay the basis for security, stability and reconstruction. Key Facts • The security provided by IFOR and SFOR since 1995 has resulted in the return of large numbers of refugees and displaced persons uprooted by the conflict in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
