Men of War for Missions of Peace: Naval Forces in Support of United Nations Resolutions.

Abstract

This report explores and explains, for the benefit of the non-naval reader, how the capabilities and limitations of naval forces fit into the current military peace support environment. This paper traces the evolution of the current peace support environment in the light of foundational Charter provisions for the use of military force, the subsequent development of peacekeeping, and identifies the significance of consent in post-Cold War operations. Utilizing the resultant model, the paper identifies appropriate naval missions in each category.
