Role OSN v prevenci a řešení mezinárodních konfliktů: Případová studie bývalé Jugoslávie a Sierry Leone
Schmidtová, Veronika ; Druláková, Radka (advisor) ; Stejskalová, Kristýna (referee)
The aim of the Masters Thesis is to analyze the role of the United Nations in conflict prevention and resolution. The theoretical framework lists a set of tools that should be followed in order to achieve a success in UN peacekeeping operations. Based on the list of the tools the Masters Thesis continues with two case studies. The case study of Former Yugoslavia and its peacekeeping operation UNPROFOR is considered to be one of the biggest failures of the UN peacekeeping. In contrary, the case study of Sierra Leoneans peacekeeping operation UNAMSIL then represents a successful UN peacekeeping operation. The Masters Thesis is concluded by a comparative analysis of these two case studies which evaluates the development and the implementation of these tools in each of the case studies. The analysis brings the answer to the research question which asks why some UN peacekeeping operations are successful whereas others completely fail.
