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.

Such acts of deliberate humiliation at the diplomatic level are common occurrences in modern diplomacy. In the period following the breakup of the famous 'Concert of Europe' many kinds of club-based diplomacy have been tried all falling short of anything like inclusive multilateralism. Examples of this effort include the G7 G8 G20 and even the P5. Such 'contact groups' are put forward as if they were actual ruling institutions endowed with the power to exclude and marginalise. Today the effect of such acts of humiliation is to reveal the international system's limits and its lack of diplomatic effectiveness. The use of humiliation as a regular diplomatic action steadily erodes the power of the international system. These actions appear to be the result of a botched mixture of a colonial past a failed decolonisation a mistaken vision of globalisation and a very dangerous post-bipolar reconstruction. Although this book primarily takes a social psychology approach to IR it also mobilizes the resources of the French sociological tradition mainly inspired by Emile Durkheim." -- Contents: Introduction; Part One: Humiliation in the History of International Relations: The Discovery of a New Form of Social Pathology 1.
