Is there Utility in Applying Military Strategy? -- The Evolution of UN Peace Operations -- Mission in Southern Europe : UNFICYP -- Mission in the Middle East : UNDOF -- Mission in the Middle East : UNIFIL -- Mission in Northern Africa : MINURSO -- Mission in Central Africa : MONUC/MONUSCO -- Mission in Western Africa : UNMIL -- Mission in Western Africa : UNOCI -- Mission in the Caribbean : MINUSTAH -- Mission in Eastern Africa : UNMIS/UNMISS -- Mission in Eastern Africa : UNAMID -- Linking Political Goals with Military Objectives.
Formulating a military strategy is a complex interaction between politicians, strategic commanders and generals. Formulating such a strategy within a multinational organization is even more complex. In this book, Edstr̲m and Gyllensporre explore a range of case studies, based on UN documents, and individually analyse their de facto military strategy in terms of ends, ways, means, and the interaction between the political strategic level (UN Security Council) and the military strategic level (UN Secretary General). Some 100,000 UN soldiers deployed all over the world not only deserve but need to be properly directed. Military strategy is hence a necessity, not an option. Moreover the military strategy should be percieved as a complementary effort to a robust integrated mission concept, including other instruments than the military.
