The key to overcoming these challenges, Gary Uzonyi argues, is emphasizing the connection between peacekeeping and slowing the flow of refugees across borders. \u003cem\u003eFinding Soldiers of Peace\u003c\/em\u003e makes the case for this approach, which balances states' self-interests with the United Nations' goal of civilian protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThrough an analysis of post-Cold War UN peacekeeping missions, particularly interventions in Mali and Sudan, Uzonyi shows how member states often tie civilian protection rhetoric to efforts to keep conflict-driven refugees from crossing into their territory. Conventional wisdom holds that member states primarily engage in peacekeeping for payment or humanitarian reasons. Uzonyi proves otherwise, helping scholars and practitioners more accurately predict which member states are most likely to send support, where states may send assistance, when they might become involved, the size of their contribution, and their timetable for leaving.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHis research promotes practical strategies for the organization and execution of future missions that ensure member states stay invested in the outcome.
