Yet, the iconoclastic symbol of both the Blue Beret and the Blue Helmet continue to engage the international political imagination in ways that downplay the inconsistent effects of peacekeeping missions on the security of local people.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn this book, Paul Higate and Marsha Henry develop critical perspectives on UN and NATO peacekeeping, arguing that these forms of international intervention are framed by the exercise of power. Their analysis of peacekeeping, based on fieldwork conducted in Haiti, Liberia and Kosovo, suggests that peacekeeping reconfigures former conflict zones in ways that shape perceptions of security. This reconfiguration of space is enacted by peacekeeping personnel who 'perform' security through their daily professional and personal practices, sometimes with unanticipated effects.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInsecure Spaces' interdisciplinary analysis sheds great light on the contradictory mix of security and insecurity that peace operations create.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Doctor Marsha Henry, Doctor Paul Higate\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1842778870\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781842778876\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.30w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2010","brand":"Doctor Marsha Henry","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47203046457599,"sku":"9781842778876","price":47.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d4f2c07c-eebc-4f51-a84c-84b36f48a389.jpg?v=1756834162","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/insecure-spaces-doctor-marsha-henry-9781842778876","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
