ABSTRACT

What is the impact of international peacekeeping missions for civil-military relations at home? This article unpacks the conditions that produce positive effects of peacekeeping participation on the domestic politics of an authoritarian regime. Drawing on field research, I discuss four mechanisms that link foreign policy making to domestic civil-military relations in Ben Ali’s Tunisia. First, the deployment of troops for peacekeeping abroad presents obstacles for the coordination of coup plots at home. Second, incumbents can allocate material resources to meet officers’ economic grievances. Moreover, peacekeeping operations serve to enhance corporate institutionalization through specific training programmes. Finally, peacekeeping contributes to a professional ethos and hence the depoliticization of the officer corps. These findings give rise to the notion that contributing to peace can have similar effects for domestic politics as going to war.

转移和平:国际维持和平与国内军民关系

摘要

国际维和特派团对国内民军关系有何影响?本文介绍了产生条件的条件,这些条件会导致维和参与对威权政权的国内政治产生积极影响。在实地研究的基础上,我讨论了将外交政策制定与本·阿里突尼斯的国内军民关系联系起来的四种机制。首先,在国外部署维持和平部队构成了国内政变策划的障碍。第二,在职者可以分配物质资源来满足官员的经济不满。此外,维持和平行动通过具体的培训方案来促进公司机构化。最后,维持和平有助于职业精神,因此使军官集团非政治化。
