Abstract

ABSTRACT There is growing scholarly interest in the role of individuals in UN peace operations, but this literature includes very little systematic analysis of how individual characteristics of peacekeeping leaders affect how international interventions are conducted. This paper seeks to fill this gap by building a systematic framework for analyzing the impact of individual characteristics on the behaviour of field-level personnel. I then show the utility of this framework for explaining the human rights promotion approaches of peace operations through a comparative study of two directors of human rights divisions in the DRC.

只是风中的树叶？用代理人层面的因素解释人权促进策略的变化

摘要学术界对个人在联合国和平行动中的作用越来越感兴趣，但这些文献很少系统分析维和领导人的个人特征如何影响国际干预的实施。本文试图通过建立一个系统的框架来分析个人特征对外勤人员行为的影响，从而填补这一空白。然后，我通过对刚果民主共和国两位人权司司长的比较研究，展示了这一框架在解释和平行动促进人权方法方面的效用。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Intervention and Statebuilding is a cross-disciplinary journal devoted to critical analysis of international intervention, focussing on interactions and practices that shape, influence and transform states and societies. In 21st century political practice, states and other actors increasingly strive to transplant what they see as normatively progressive political orders to other contexts. Accordingly, JISB focuses on the complex interconnections and mutually shaping interactions between donor and recipient communities within military, economic, social, or other interventional contexts, and welcomes perspectives on political life of, and beyond, European state-building processes. The journal brings together academics and practitioners from cross-disciplinary backgrounds, including international relations, political science, political economy, sociology, international law, social anthropology, geography, and regional studies. The editors are particularly interested in specific or comparative in-depth analyses of contemporary or historical interventions and state-building processes that are grounded in careful fieldwork and/or innovative methodologies. Multi or cross-disciplinary contributions and theoretically challenging pieces that broaden the study of intervention and state building to encompass processes of decision-making, or the complex interplay between actors on the ground, are especially encouraged.
