Peacekeeping operations

This book shows how the UN experiments with peacekeeping operations in Africa, specifically in the Democratic Republic of Congo; from ONUC to MONUC and then MONUSCO, the DRC is indeed this field of experimentation. This experimentation does not succeed or does not give convincing results for the simple reason that most of the contributing States intervene for various reasons and especially economic. The sustainability of these operations in the DRC depends on the resources that the country has.On the whole, the UN has not emerged and has not grown from its operations in the DRC since 1960. These operations underline the limits of its will and its capacity to act and suggest that its commitment to the preservation of the country's independence is mixed. This situation is largely explained by the fact that its commitment is instrumentalized by its most powerful members who, alongside the overall objective of the organization, pursue their own interests in the games in which they are involved.
