Summary Civil wars have caused tremendous human suffering in the last century, and the United Nations is often asked to send peacekeepers to stop ongoing violence. Yet despite being the most visible tool of international intervention, policymakers and scholars have little systematic knowledge about how well peacekeeping works. 'Peacekeeping in the Midst of War' offers the most comprehensive analyses of peacekeeping on civil war violence to date.

It also directly measures the strength of UN missions in personnel capacity and constitution
