Culture and Interoperability in Integrated Missions / Rubinstein, Robert A; Keller, Diana M.; Scherger, Michael E   Journal Article
Rubinstein, Robert A Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2008.
Summary/Abstract Integrated missions require people from diverse backgrounds to work together and to work with local populations with whom they may be unfamiliar. In both instances, cultural differences can present challenges or opportunities. This article extends a model of how culture affects interoperability among members of an integrated mission - horizontal interoperability - to the understanding of how culture affects an integrated mission's work with local populations - vertical interoperability. The article identifies seven principles of action which allow integrated missions to take account of culture in engaging local populations.

Peacekeeping and the return of imperial policing / Rubinstein, Robert A   Journal Article
Rubinstein, Robert A Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2010.
Summary/Abstract UN peacekeeping rose to prominence as an instrument of international action based on its enacting a root metaphor that promised the reversal of politics as usual and the creation of a more equitable world. Practices developed in traditional peacekeeping created a culture of peacekeeping that reinforced this root metaphor through a linking of strategic policy to actions in operations. This article argues that developments in the way that peacekeeping has been used are undermining the root metaphor such that the cultural inversions associated with peacekeeping are increasingly difficult to maintain, if they can be continued at all. The result is that peacekeeping has been sliding toward recreating earlier practices of imperial policing by placing the concerns of international actors ahead of those of the local communities in which peace operations take place.
