I would say empirically the findings are quite mixed, because there is still evidence of a lot of the issues I mentioned about power between peacekeeping operations and host countries. They absolutely still exist, so I'm not entirely convinced that we're in a golden era of new peacekeeping. I would have to look into that question specifically to find that answer.
I do think that, in and of itself, it is a practice with which we perhaps want to have a deeper engagement and of which we want to be more critical, because militarized peacekeeping itself is an oxymoron. You're relying on militaries to keep the peace, and I appreciate that they are often necessary in the short term, but I'm not convinced that if were to do a longitudinal study of peacekeeping operations from the time they came into being, UN peacekeeping operations.... They've diffused conflict temporarily, but I'm not absolutely certain that they've enabled us to move towards a genuine idea about peace.
