United Nations Peacebuilding Missions and the Notion of Sustainable Peace

Summary/Abstract: The end of Cold War and the outbreak of highly destructive civil conflicts across the globe mandated a new approach to human security that would go beyond the constraints contained in the principle of state sovereignty. The peacebuilding strategies became its embodiment while the United Nations grow into an international workshop in which new, complex peacebuilding missions were born. The institution building directed at creating stable institutions of democratic governance and market economy gained prominent place in these new types of peace operations. Further development of the peacebuilding praxis lead to the raise of international administration missions the main feature of which was exercise of quasi-governmental functions in the war-torn countries. The notion of "sustainable peace" is key for understanding of the way in which these new types of UN missions were devised, what is their relationship with the conflict resolution theories and to which extent they match to the vision from which they rose.
