摘要:自冷战结束以来,多边军事行动的数量急剧增加,其中大多数与“维持和平”这一通用术语的联系松散。这些行动绝大多数是在联合国主持下进行的。它们反映了部落民族主义的重生、宗教仇外心理的蔓延,以及自二战以来已经脱离殖民地的第三世界民族国家面临的贫困和解体威胁。结果,我们目睹了美国、我们共同加入的区域组织以及联合国系统面临的新挑战。这项研究工作将集中于和平行动性质的变化、其对美国军队可能产生的影响,以及改善和增强各种组织成功完成未来和平行动的能力的方法。职权范围将包括不断变化的国际安全环境、联合国和北约在应对现有安全问题方面的优势和劣势以及可能采取的补救行动。政策提案和建议包括:需要制定军事理论,为“和平行动”一词下的广泛活动提供行动指导,迫切需要制定各种类型的统一指挥和控制安排,以满足未来的应急行动;以及将民事部分纳入作战规划早期阶段的可取性。
Abstract : The period since the end of the Cold War has witnessed a dramatic growth in the number of multilateral military operations, most loosely linked with the generic term 'peacekeeping.' The overwhelming majority of these operations have taken place under the auspices of the United Nations. They are a reflection of the rebirth of tribal nationalism, spreading religious xenophobia, and the threatened impoverishment and disintegration of Third World nation- states that have slipped their colonial moorings since World War II. As a result, we are witnessing new challenges to the United States, to the regional organizations in which we share membership, and to the United Nations system. This study effort will concentrate on the changing nature of peace operations, their likely impact on the U.S. military, and ways to improve and enhance the capabilities of various organizations to successfully complete future peace operations. The terms of reference will include the changing international security environment, the strengths and weaknesses of the United Nations and NATO in coping with existing security issues, and possible remedial actions. Policy proposals and recommendations include: a need to develop military doctrine that provides operational guidance for the broad range of activities that fall under the term 'peace operations', the urgent requirement for development of various types of unified command and control arrangements to meet future contingency operations; and the desirability of including civilian components in early stages of operational planning.
