U.N. Peacekeeping: Lessons Learned in Managing Recent Missions (Chapter
Report, 12/29/93, GAO/NSIAD-94-9).

The U.N. efforts in Cambodia and Somalia have sought to bring peace to
nations devastated by civil war.  The U.N. operations in these two
countries, which involved ambitious objectives and authorized budgets of
more than $1 billion, provide excellent case studies in how the U.N.
manages peacekeeping.  This report examines operational problems with
implementing peacekeeping and the importance of clear mandates and a
solid political framework for peace.  Specifically, GAO (1) describes
the results of U.N. efforts in Cambodia through July 1993, (2) studies
the U.N.'s capability to manage operations such as those in Cambodia and
Somalia, (3) examines peacekeeping command in the field, and (4)
examines peacekeeping mandates.
