Since the end of
the Cold War, peacekeeping operations have gained importance as an essential
part of UN peace activities. The present day transformed security environment
for peacekeeping operations requiring more pro-active resilient security
structures and the ability to intervene in security hotspots. It is argued in
this article that ‘Law Enforcement Forces with Military Status’(LEFMS) provide
an effective operational force for dealing with emerging threats. Having
examined their national and multinational status there are positive indications
that gendarmerie-type forces can indeed be a supportive force in partnership
with the peacekeeping abilities of international actors. The research findings
are exploratory with descriptive statistics used to support the arguments
presented.

BARIŞI KORUMA OPERASYONLARINDA ASKERİ STATÜLÜ KOLLUK KUVVETLERİ

Öz

Soğuk Savaşın sona
ermesinden sonra, Birleşmiş Milletlerin barış faaliyetlerinin ayrılmaz bir
parçası olan barışı koruma operasyonları önem kazanmıştır. Günümüz dünyası,
barışı koruma operasyonlarının yürütüldüğü güvenlik ortamının proaktif, esnek
ve kararlı güvenlik yapıları ile yeteneklerine sahip olunmasını
gerektirmektedir. Bu makalede ‘askeri statülü kolluk kuvvetleri’nin ortaya
çıkan sorunlarla mücadele edebilecek etkili bir güç olduğu iddia edilmektedir.
Askeri statülü kolluk kuvvetlerinin ulusal ve uluslararası konumlarının
incelenmesinden sonra, uluslararası aktörlerin diğer barışı koruma
yeteneklerini destekleyici olarak kullanılabileceklerine dair yeterli kanıtlara
ulaşılmıştır. Araştırma bulguları keşfedici niteliktedir ve öne sürülen argüman
betimsel istatistiklerle desteklenmiştir.
