| Description | The paper aims to explore the main trends in German participation in United Nations (UN) peacekeeping operations. Special attention is devoted to the period since 2014 when top German political representatives announced an increased willingness to step up German engagement in international affairs. Soon after, Germany shifted from a rather hesitant UN peacekeeper to the most significant European troop provider to the UN peacekeeping operation in Mali (MINUSMA). Does the increased involvement of Germany in MINUSMA mean a new trend, or is it merely an exception without any long-term implications? |
