James Cockayne, Daniel Pfister
Drawn from a seminar jointly convened by the International Peace Institute and the Geneva Centre for Security Policy, this paper explores the relationship between organized crime and international peace operations al hitherto largely neglected area of both scholarly and practitioner-led discourse. Cockayne and Pfister examine organized crime as a spoiler to peace operations and, in so doing, confront a cross-section of the issues it presents.
