Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The book investigates the rising trend of multiple simultaneous peace operations (MSPOs) by international organizations in conflict zones, highlighting the factors that foster cooperation among them. It explores both rational-interest explanations, such as resource sharing and conflict complexity, and social-constructivist perspectives, including social learning and cultural similarities. Utilizing a multi-method approach, the author employs statistical analysis, interviews, and case studies to reveal that cooperation is initiated through member-states' acquiescence and driven by the desire to share costs and enhance effectiveness.
