- who are the relevant actors in this context (from the UN, to regional organizations, and the Troup Contributing Countries);
- how are peacekeeping operations created and by whom (resolutions by international organizations, and the Status of Mission/Forces Agreements with host states);
- how are they staffed (interactions between international organizations and (member) states);
- what legal norms apply to them when in the field (human rights and humanitarian law, Rules of Engagement); and
- what (if anything) happens when that legal framework is violated (questions of international responsibility, immunities).These questions will be examined against the relevant broader historical and political background. A basic knowledge of public international law is preferable (e.g. on sources of international law; principles of international law; the status of states, individuals and international organizations), however not mandatory.
