The benefit has been mutual: for the UN the commitment of a prosperous state with a tradition of military preparedness despite its neutrality and for Sweden the opportunity to practise military leadership and test its soldiers in in complex situations often involving actual fighting. Sweden's important activity in this field has been little documented and hardly at all in languages other than Swedish. This is now remedied with a comprehensive case-study of a model UN operation which directly affected the political result - which was the transformation of Sinai a classic theatre of war into a peace front. The study is in two parts. The first is chronological and begins with the establishment of the UN Emergency Force UNEF II after the October War of 1973; the political antecedents involving the Secretary-General the Security Council and the countries approached for contributions; the interposition of "mini-battalions" between the Egyptian and Israeli front lines; the UNEF build-up the complex separation of forces the establishment of the blue helmets in the buffer-zones routine activities and incidents and finally after a peace treaty the winding-up of the UN force. The despatch of a Swedish advance guard to a new peacekeeping force in Lebanon in 1978 is also described. The three levels and locations of command - UN headquarters in New York UNEF headquarters and the fourteen successive Swedish contingents are all given their due weight. The second part is analytical looking not only at the course of events but at the different concerns of the military staff: operational logistical and personal. The final chapter sums up the essential experience and lessons of the operation with some proposals for improvements. -- Contents: Chronology of UN interventions in the Middle East; UNEF II: basic data; Part I.

It charts the trajectories of 41 Armenians across the global diaspora and Armenia proper. It is structured in four thematic parts - introduction individual portraits memory and trauma and institutional efforts - and interlaced with personal testimonies. The introductory chapters contextualize Armenian historical experience and identity. Topics include the Armenian genocide its denial by Turkey Germany's complicity and the evolving Armenian-Turkish relationship. Some chapters dissect the genocide's foundational role in shaping modern Armenian consciousness and the persistent obstacles to political and historical reconciliation. The core of the book presents profiles of individuals grouped by vocation and geography such as scholars writers artists religious leaders musicians and public figures. These include notable personalities such as genocide scholar Vahakn Dadrian poet Peter Balakian media critic Michael J. Arlen singer Charles Aznavour director Atom Egoyan and editor Hrant Dink. The essays trace how these individuals confront questions of memory trauma identity exile and return often linked to the genocide and its aftereffects. Several portraits focus on individuals whose personal histories are entwined with collective memory such as Madame Anahit a street musician in Istanbul or Van Leo a photographer in Cairo. Figures like Zori Balayan and Anna Hakobyan also demonstrate how political engagement and cultural activism serve as responses to historical injustice. Religious identity and the role of the church are examined in chapters on major clerics from Echmiadzin Antelias and Istanbul. These explore how faith institutions balance tradition with modernization while often operating as cultural custodians amid fractured geographies. Another central theme is the tension between personal reconciliation and historical justice. Several subjects engage with the trauma of genocide through literature oral history or psychological reflection. One section focuses on a couple who documented over 100 survivor testimonies linking their research to similar efforts in Rwanda. Institutional initiatives such as the Zoryan Institute's scholarly projects and its Genocide and Human Rights University Program illustrate how Armenians have contributed to comparative genocide studies. These efforts show a deliberate shift from isolated memorialization to transnational engagement aiming to situate the Armenian experience within broader human rights discourses. The final essays underscore Armenia's current geopolitical situation especially in relation to Turkey and Azerbaijan. The unresolved conflict over Nagorno-Karabakh and closed borders highlight the precarity of Armenian sovereignty and the ongoing implications of denied history. At the same time the portraits reflect efforts to transcend national trauma through education cultural production and global advocacy. Portraits of Hope can be used as a resource in fields such as diaspora studies genocide studies cultural memory postcolonial theory and transnational identity. It bridges genres - biography historiography political reflection - and offers a pluralistic account of how historical experience informs contemporary subjectivity while illuminating contradictions within Armenian identity: nationalism and cosmopolitanism religious tradition and secular modernity victimhood and resilience.
